PeTote Has Become the Exclusive Pet Carrier of American Airlines

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB via PR Web
Direct) July 12, 2005 -- PeTote by Janet Lee, a luxury line of handbags
designed for carrying small pets, has struck a deal with American Airlines to
become its exclusive authorized pet carrier. PeTote will manufacture a private
line of carriers with the American Airlines company logo which will be available
for purchase at all of the American Airlines terminals and check-ins throughout
the U.S. and abroad.
PeTote teamed up with American Airlines to provide
pet carriers to passengers which meet the current FAA regulations, thereby
reducing the stress of traveling with pets. American Airlines customers will
have a choice of purchasing carriers in three different styles, Kelle, Rio, or a
Rolling Backpack. Each style comes in a variety of colors and some are accented
with a snakeskin trimming. PeTote will also be manufacturing luggage tags and
brochures with the American Airlines logo.
American Airlines’ customers
had previously complained about the lack of pet carriers available through the
airline. Their customers were hesitant to purchase pet carriers that were not
endorsed by the airline and could potentially violate size regulations. So,
American Airlines approached PeTote to collaborate on a line of pre-approved
carriers, ones the airline could sell directly to their passengers. The
partnership will have great benefits for the PeTote line. “This license with
American Airlines is going to expand our business growth and put us on top of
the pet carrier market,” said PeTote President Janet Lee, who was recently
featured in Entrepreneur Magazine (August 2004).
PeTote pet carriers have
been available since 2002 and are sold in over 400 boutiques nationwide and in
ten countries internationally. PeTote was inspired by Janet’s dog Gorbie, and
was designed to add the style of current hand bags to the functionality of pet
carriers at an affordable price. Janet Lee, has also recently created a line of
luxury Diaper Bags and is working on bringing the same style and functionality
of her PeTote carriers to the baby market.
