Has anyone used this with allegiant airlines? The max height they allow for carriers is 9 inches. Will this collapse enough to meet the guidelines?

I purchased this with Allegiant in mind though I have yet to travel with it. It’s flexible and with my small dog, I believe it will squish enough.

Does this carrier has a solid bottom that is waterproff? How about the material of the carrier is it strong/padded/scratch resistant?

It is not waterproof. The sides are not very durable. My cat was able to tear the sides with her claws.

Has anyone used this carrier to travel with Iberia airlines?

The carrier is well constructed but air travel I think would be out of the question unless held. The side walls are payable and could collapse under presure from heavy objects.
