contact the airport? or the airline? (Pet Travel)? So I live in a very small town with a single-runway airport about 45 minutes away. I plan to travel in July and bring my pet dog with me. My husband is insisting that, because the airport itself is soooo small, that they wont fly pets. I'm not convinced, but I can't find anything that directly tells me...anything. My dilemma is, do I contact the airlines I plan to purchase tickets from? or do I contact the airport? Also, leaving from this small airport does mean that I'll HAVE to make at least ONE stop.....would it be better to drive a few hours out to the closest major airport and try to get a nonstop flight for my pet's comfort? Or would it make a difference?

Help appreciated with airline travel with a pet? I know this is a bit of a no-no.... I have a new kitten/cat that is soooo easy going. (He will even let you give him a bath without a fight) Anyhow, he is going to travel on a 1 segment, 2 hour plane ride with me. When I asked the airline about taking kitty for my carry on, they wanted $90.00 ONE WAY or $180.00 round trip. At this price, I can get him his own seat, for it cost me on $20.00 more for my ticket that gets a snack/drink and a seat with a view other than people's feet. I know this is awful... I just can't afford this extra $ and I will be gone a month, so I cant trust his care that long to a neighbor. Anyhow, I have strongly considering being a "kitty smugler". I was going to go to the vet and get something to help keep him calm. (he never Meows, so no worries there) Now the question... When going thru security and they check your ticket going through security, do they check your pets ticket? Obviously, then I would be busted. Any advise is much appreciated

I am looking for people with experience with flying their pups and suggestions.

Also if they need any type documentation at the Security checkpoint when they check your ticket and ID. Their main concern is not "pet patrol", but security.

United Airlines international pet travel. Anyone with experience?? I'm getting ready to move home from Japan to the USA and I have a cat to bring.

International pet travel from USA to UK? Which airline have you and your pet flew together in the cabin from LAX to LHR? In February of 2012, I will be flying with my pet from LAX (Los Angeles) to LHR (London Heathrow) I have a small deer chihuahua weighing 4lbs, so I want her to be 'in the cabin' with me. She has been through all the requirements of the United Kingdom's Pets Travel Scheme and DEFRA. I'm having trouble finding out which airlines will allow me to take her with me in the cabin. I was wondering if anyone here has taken this route and could share their experience with recommendations of what airline I should or should NOT consider, (as I've noticed each airline and each airport have their own additional conditions for pet travel) Continental Airlines at LAX seems to be the only option so far. For the route I will be taking, they appear to be the only airline that allows pet travel in the cabin from LAX to LHR. Continental airlines appears to be great to go with, but are they my only option? Are there any other airlines that you've experienced and would recommend me looking into? I've done my reading and I have spoke with airline agents, some agents have not been helpful, as they read the rules directly from their website that I've already done myself, which doesn't provide much information. They also tell me there is no other information about it, so they are unable to give me an answer.

How can I take legal action towards an airline company who mistreated my pet while she traveled overseas?HELP! My 6 year-old Beagle had to travel by airplane, I bought her a very nice kennel to make sure she was comfortable, we followed all the vet's instructions to make sure she was OK. She did well the first time, it was a 10-hr flight. Then on our way back, she arrived in very bad condition, her eyes were bloated, she couldn't stop vomiting and eliminating her waste (full of blood) and was very nervous. I couldn't believe my eyes when I took her out of the kennel at the airport. The veterinarian examined her and told me that for her symptoms it seems that the cabin where she traveled wasn't well pressurized and she was lucky to make it alive. Thank God she is fine again. I have to travel again, with her, I have the return ticket with the same airline, and I am afraid to put her in a high risk situation. I want to take legal action towards the airline and I don't want to travel anymore with this airline (supposedly one of the best that exist now). How can I do? I need HELP from a Lawyer!

Is it hard to travel with pets (dogs) on airplanes? I live and work about 13 hours away from my hometown and where my family still lives. When I go home to visit, I usually fly because I cannot stand being on the road 13 hours. However, I am really wanting to get a small dog (10lbs or under) and I'm wondering if it is difficult to fly with a pet. I have looked up several airlines pet policies and it looks like a lot of them do allow pets.

I usually go home a few times a year (usually around the holidays). Of course, I probably wouldn't take my pet with me everytime, just occasionally if I stayed home to visit for a while. Thanks!

Do airlines allow travelling with a small pet in a carry on pet container?

I need to travel with pet / dog (Mongolia to the US). Concerned about weather, cargo, luggage...? I will be moving home next February from Mongolia to the US. I am concerned about weather and it being to cold for her to go on flights as luggage and freezing to death because the luggage container under an airplane is not temperature regulated. What is the difference between pets traveling as luggage or cargo on flights? Are there special ways of getting her to the US without freezing? Someone told me there might be temperature regulated containers under planes for pets. Will I have to send her this fall to avoid the freezing temperatures in the winter? Finally, what are the temperatures at which an airline determines that it is unsafe to send pets on a flight? It is not an option for her to be carry on. Additional comments, links, information regarding international travel of pets and how to get her a ticket on a flight that I am NOT on would be appreciated, in case I need to ship her alone this fall to my mom in California. I should say that I am required to fly on a US carrier (I am a Fulbright scholar and it is a requirement of my grant.) Also, I don't have much money to spend. I was thinking around $500. $1,000 is totally out of the question and I will have to find another way to get her home.

The problem is the airline company maximum measurements for the crate are unreal: Maximum of 24'' for height and 36'' for depth. I actually need one of 36'' D, since I'm carrying a Basset, but the height would exced the permitted, which is 24''. I can find only 27'' of heigh, that seems to be the default height for 36''. Some know of a carrier with 36'' of depth and 24'' of height? Thank you!

When traveling with a pet, such as a small dog or cat under 15/20 lbs, why do you have to be charged? When traveling with a pet, such as a small dog or cat under 15/20 lbs, in an approved carrier that can fit under the seat in front of you, why do you have to be charged? Airlines charge anywhere between $85 to $100 each way and the distance traveled does not affect the price. Sometimes the pet fee is higher than the passenger's ticket if it is a short fllight. People with young children that sit of the adults' lap fly at no charge. People who have carry ons that fit under the seats in front of them are not charged even the carry on is the same size as the pet carrier. People traveling with small pets are not being treated fairly by the airlines.

I need advise from someone who took their pet to another country by plane!? I'm moving to Japan next year, and I'm taking my Lilo (Toy Jack Russell Terrier Mix) with me. I checked-out the Animal Quarantine Service's website and started the long process of getting her ready for next year's trip. I'm trying to do everything perfect, so Lilo doesn't end-up being rejected to enter Japan or have to be quarantined for weeks or months! It'll be nice if I can talk to someone who has already taken a pet to another country that has been through all of what I'm going through now. For example, I read on airline websites for pet travel...is it true that pets cannot fly between June and September?? because it's too hot? Isn't there any exceptions? I'm planning on moving in May or June...can I bring Lilo with me?

Delta Airline Pet Policies!!!? Okay, I have a Shetland Sheepdog (Sheltie) and I need to know Delta Requirments. I've called the airline and the employee was no help. I am traveling first class so the seats will be bigger. I need to know how big the carrier can be, about sedating my dog (yes or no), what happens if your dog can not fit under the seat infront of you, and anything else you can tell me. Please help, my trip is coming up very soon!!!

Another airline pet question? I posted a question earlier about dog travel and I found that Delta will allow me to keep her with me under the seat during the flight, so that makes me feel a little bit more at ease...but she barks with the best of them if you know what I mean. She is not at all a mean dog, when she meets new people all they need to do is pet her and she is perfectly fine after that...but I can't really have an entire airplane full of people petting her...so my question is...am I allowed to have a shock collar on her while on the airplane? Some of you will say that shock collars are bad but I personally don't belive they are if you use them correctly. If I am not allowed to use them does anyone have any alternative ideas to keep her from barking?

How do I move two very travel-averse cats long distance? I've looked at the previous answers on this topic, and I'm not sure there's anything that can help. The last time I moved one of my cats, I had the vet give him an oral sedative, put him in the carrier, and he still cried and howled nonstop for the entire 20-hour trip. I've now adopted a second cat who hates travel just as much and also defecates the second he is put into a kitty carrier; needless to say, this makes any trip exceedingly unpleasant, especially in the summer. I would also be driving a rental car, and sometimes they don't allow animals in their vehicles. I have considered air travel as an alternative, but 1) news stories about airline negligence causing pet deaths in baggage holds have me worried and 2) I read in a previous answer that the fee per cat would be $250, and I simply don't have an extra $500 to spare; I'll be lucky if I can pay for this trip (from Minneapolis to Boston) at all. Are there any other options that might be more effective? I'm at a loss.
