I agree with Nonie. Please don't put your dogs on a plane. My husband and I drove several times from NY to Miami, back and forth, with 2 large dogs and 2 kids. Believe me, the dogs were easier to travel with than the kids! We had a station wagon so the dogs had a big space to lie down in the back, but even if you have a sedan it shouldn't be a problem. They will make themselves comfortable and go to sleep. Just be sure to stop every couple of hours for a potty break and water. If you're really worried you could ask your vet for a mild tranquilizer, but I don't think you'll need it.
