Never thought about that. But not sure how the temp is regulated on those suckers either. Wish we had the ability to "beam her up Scotty"!
That is not necessarily true. The last time I went on Emirates Airlines, there were 3 birds on board with us, with their owners, in the cabin. I'm not sure how they got on board, but they went through security with us, and there they were, right at the seats in front of us. It was about 3 years ago. I don't know if policies have changed, or if they allow some animals in the cabin, and not others, but I know there were birds on board when we flew.

I wish Ally a safe, smoothe trip, and Julie lots of comfort.
