Pets As Cargo

A pet is happiest when in his safe and secure environment. This is the reason it is so important for your pet to be crate trained. Your pet will associate his crate as his familiar traveling room.

Fears surrounding pet transportation originate from pet guardians improperly placing pets on airplanes without prior knowledge of how to correctly ship a pet.

It is important and necessary to prepare your pet by selecting the proper travel crate. Knowing the travel rules & regulations and choosing the most suitable aircraft for your pet provide a safe & stress-free environment for your pet.

Devastating stories have arisen from pets dying due to either extreme cold, heat exposure on the tarmac, or improper placement on the airplane. Even though airlines try to prevent these life-threatening mistakes, it is critical to choose the best airline to ship your pet and meet your needs.

During the winter months, restriction apply as to whether or not your pet will be able to travel in the cargo section of the aircraft. In certain cases the restriction may be waived with a written veterinarian statement referred to as a Certificate of Acclimation.

We directly work with the airlines on loading/unloading the pets helping them avoid sitting on the tarmac. The airline shuttles them to/from the plane accordingly instead of with general cargo. Our company has extensive knowledge on the safest ways to fly pets including conditions such as temperature, type of aircraft, the airline, and even the breed.
