M-Pets Viaggio IATA Approved Travel Carrier for Pets (Grey Black)
Flying with your pet starts long before you reach the airport. The carrier you choose determines whether your pet travels in the hold or gets turned away at check-in.
The M-Pets Viaggio is an IATA-approved pet carrier built for air travel — designed to meet the International Air Transport Association's container requirements for live animals, which form the baseline standard that most airlines use when assessing whether a carrier is acceptable for checked baggage or cargo travel. It has a metal front gate with a safety lock, four-sided ventilation slits, a leak-proof base, tool-free assembly, and includes a 300ml bowl that clips inside the carrier door. It dismantles flat for storage between trips.
(Available in Grey - Black in sizes XS, S, M, and L on Supertails. Marketed by Pet Like That Solution LLP, Malad West, Mumbai.)
⚠️ Important before you book: IATA approval is a baseline container standard, not a guarantee of acceptance by every airline. Individual airlines — including IndiGo, Air India, and international carriers — have their own specific requirements around carrier dimensions, ventilation opening sizes, door latch types, and material specifications that may differ from or exceed the base IATA standard. Always confirm your specific carrier's dimensions and specifications directly with your airline before travelling. Do not assume IATA approval alone guarantees acceptance at check-in.
What Are the Features of the M-Pets Viaggio IATA Carrier?
Here is what the Viaggio travel carrier includes:
Metal front gate with safety lock — a full-height metal door with a secure latch mechanism. Metal gate construction is a requirement under IATA container regulations for live animal transport and provides significantly more structural integrity than plastic door alternatives under the stress of baggage handling
Four-sided ventilation — ventilation slits on all four sides of the carrier ensure airflow from multiple directions regardless of how the carrier is oriented in the hold. Adequate ventilation is both an IATA requirement and a welfare necessity for animals in enclosed spaces during extended travel
Leak-proof base — a sealed, raised base that contains any liquid within the carrier during transit. Required under IATA regulations and prevents seepage onto cargo hold surfaces or other baggage
Included 300ml bowl — a clip-in water bowl that attaches inside the carrier door, allowing water and food access during transit without requiring the door to be opened
Tool-free assembly and flat storage — the carrier assembles and dismantles without tools, making it practical for storage between trips and for reassembly at the airport if required for inspection
Wheels on M and L sizes — the M and L size Viaggio carriers include wheels for easier transport through airports. The XS and S sizes do not have wheels — factor this into your size choice if airport portability is a priority for you
What Sizes Is the M-Pets Viaggio Available in, and Which Should You Choose?
Available on Supertails in XS, S, M, and L. Measure your pet's length (nose to base of tail) and height (floor to top of ears or head, whichever is taller) before choosing a size. IATA regulations require that your pet can stand, turn around, and lie down in a natural position inside the carrier.

To find the right size: add 10cm to your pet's length for the minimum carrier length, and add 10cm to your pet's standing height for the minimum carrier height. If your pet falls between sizes, always go up — a pet carrier that is too small will be rejected under IATA welfare requirements.
