Traveling abroad with your pet requires careful preparation, including up-to-date vaccinations, a valid health certificate, and any necessary import permits. Ensuring your pet meets all airline and destination requirements helps make the journey smooth and stress-free. Read our complete guide on all documents and health requirements for flying with pets on the plane.

Choosing the right kennel is essential for your pet’s comfort and safety during travel.

For pets traveling in the cargo hold, IATA-approved hard-sided crates are recommended, providing maximum protection and ventilation.

Pets traveling in the cabin may use soft-sided travel bags that fit under the seat, ideal for smaller cats and dogs.

Standard kennel sizes vary based on your pet’s weight and dimensions, ensuring they can stand, turn, and lie down comfortably throughout the journey. Read our full guide for detailed guidance on selecting the correct crate size.

Pets are allowed in the cabin only under certain conditions. Typically, they must be small enough to fit comfortably in a soft-sided carrier under the seat, meet airline weight limits, and be accompanied by all required documentation. Small dogs, cats, and service dogs, are generally allowed to travel in-cabin. Larger dogs, most exotic pets and specific breeds are often required to fly in the cargo hold.

Proper preparation makes travel safe and stress-free. Ensure your pet is familiar with its carrier, has up-to-date vaccinations, and has a recent health certificate. Avoid feeding immediately before the flight, provide plenty of water, and keep their routine as normal as possible. Gentle reassurance and short practice trips can help them adjust to the journey ahead.

Your pet’s safety and comfort come first. At Air Transport Animal, every animal travels in compliant carriers and is carefully monitored at every step by our experienced team. From secure loading to climate-controlled cargo and gentle handling, we take every measure to ensure your pet arrives happy, healthy, and stress-free.

We keep you updated at every stage of your pet’s journey. You will receive regular notifications, including pick-up details, flight progress, delivery updates, and even photos, so you can always be confident that your pet is safe and on schedule.
