Thread: Shippings dogs Via Airlines?*Possible New Addition!*

Hybrid View

  1. #1
    Awww, give your friend big hugs from me.

    Some of it depends on the particular airline. When I had to do some flying (multiple flights) with Spanky, I went with all Alaska/Horizon flights. There was one that was an American Airlines operated by Horizon Air but I never ran into any problems.

    They have to have an airline approved crate. There has to be bedding on the bottom that will absorb any "liquids". There has to be one bowl for food and one for water that can be attached to the crates but also accessible from the outside. I am unsure if the *live animal* labels are required or not. I never had them on mine.

    They will need, within a few days of the flight, a vet health check with the certificate to show as proof. Before boarding, there will be a fee that has to be paid.

    If I can think of anything else, I will post again! I am currently trying to find pics of the crate I used when flying w/ pups.

    thanks for the Info! I have ontacted some airlines, and there are many that do not ship dogs, without a passenger. So our options have been limited. Alotof the airlines, do not come into my Airport, so I will have to do some traveling to pick up, which is okay.

    so far my best options seem to be:
    Delta
    United
    Continental
    Maggie,

    Some relatives have moved with their pets across the pond by Delta Airlaines
    the dog in cabin with them and the cat in the cargo.

    Out there is a company specialized on transporting pets by road, maybe it's a better option for you? I don't remember the name of the company.Maybe if you google *pet transport* or something of that sort you can find it.


    Good luck, he sure is a cutie. I'm sorry for your friend.

    When traveling within Canada I always ship West Jet. When Traveling within the States I always ship Delta's Pet First Department. Here is a link to the Delta area:

    Yes, i looked, and talked with them. They definitely seemed like the better choice, including their prices.
