Many people consider pets to be family members and thus travel separation can cause significant stress for both owners and their pets. This could be avoided by allowing people to keep pets with them in cabin during flight.

Also, having pets travel as manifested cargo increases travel fees significantly. Finally, there is the constant worry of our pets being safe and attended to during the flight. This too can be avoided if they are in cabin.
