Description
xMeet Mr. Peanut's Big Apple XL Double Expandable Pet Carrier in Platinum Gray — a soft-sided travel companion built for cabin journeys that stretch beyond the basics. This XL model is 2 inches longer than many airline specs, yet preserves the same height and width as other models, allowing a familiar feel while offering extra interior space when needed. The fabric is pliable and the design is compressible, helping you tuck the carrier into tight overhead compartments or under-seat areas. Sold worldwide and regularly used on both international and domestic routes, this carrier is designed to support real-world travel days and varied schedules.
Fit, space, and pet comfort
The carrier is recommended for pets up to 17 inches long and up to 20 pounds. Measure your pet while they’re comfortably lying down, since that is a typical flight position and what the interior space is designed to accommodate. Keep in mind that interior space is slightly smaller than the exterior due to fabric thickness and plush faux fleece padding, and the rounded tote shape makes interior dimensions approximate at the maximum measured points. Always verify your pet’s measurements against the guidelines before purchasing.
- Best fits: up to 17" L x 10" H and 20 lbs.
- Interior space is slightly smaller than exterior; rounded contours mean approximate measurements.
Travel-ready design and features
This carrier is built for travel, with breathable mesh on all sides to promote airflow in varying cabin conditions. It includes a removable fleece travel bed with a plywood base for additional support, a padded shoulder strap for comfortable carrying, and a name tag for quick identification. A zippered mesh storage pocket keeps treats, meds, and papers organized, while seatbelt attachments help secure the carrier in a vehicle. An included Mr. Peanut's logo storage pouch provides extra storage, and the carrier folds to 3" for compact storage at home or in the car. A ventilated top helps it align with airline configurations under the forward seat for major carriers like Delta, Southwest, United, American, Virgin, and others.
