I fly on Southwest airlines which has open seating. I always get the front bulkhead seat which has a lot of room for my dog The center seat is usually empty. My dog is an 80 pound white shepherd and this works out well for both of us.

I make the dog fit as much in my space as possible, as I said, and then once the plane or bus or whatever gets rolling, we spread out cause no one is going to be sitting there.
