Will you be moving in the near future? If so, as a pet owner, will you be taking your pet with you? Although most of us leave our pets at home, you may not want to do so, or your purpose of travel may be relocation rather than a fun holiday.
Regardless of your reasons for travelling with your pet(s), some important points should be considered. First, if you want to travel with a pet, you must ensure you can do so. While some airlines allow pets on their flights, not all do. You may be in a quandary if you want to fly from a small airport with one or two airlines.
If pets are not allowed there or can not cope with the rules and regulations, you should consider other airports nearby, especially larger ones.
If you are travelling with your pet(s), remember there will be an additional fee. Unfortunately, many first-time travellers with pets believe they can use their pets and carriers as carry-on or checked baggage. However, that is not how it works. You will have to pay an additional fee to travel on a horse. This additional cost will probably depend on the airline and where your pet is, e.g. in the cabin or in the baggage compartment.
This is another important point. Although some airlines allow pets such as cats and dogs on board, not all allow pets in the cabin with other passengers.
Small planes with allergies love this. Find an airline that lets you bring your pet on board if you can’t leave it. However, your pet’s size affects your options. Air travel requires a pet carrier or crate. Many airlines have type-specific rules. Material and volume are governed.
Request this information from many airlines. Allow your pet to move around. Some airlines refuse to transport dangerous pets in small crates and cargo boxes. Vet checkups are also crucial.
Make sure your pet is vaccinated and travel-ready. Both airlines offer pet health certificates. Travelling with pets involves numerous considerations. Booking direct flights, labelling your pet’s collar, and bringing them are further suggestions.
