What Is It Really Like for a Pet to Fly?
For an owner, waving goodbye as their pet prepares to fly can feel like a huge moment. For the experienced professionals looking after them, however, it is a carefully planned journey designed around safety, comfort and welfare.
At My Pet Travel, that care begins before the airport. Our pre-boarding care service gives pets somewhere comfortable to settle before their journey, while taking some of the pressure away from owners on the day of travel. Our super-friendly team is on hand to make sure pets receive plenty of care and attention while everything is prepared for their flight.
Pets travel in appropriately sized, secure crates with room to stand, turn around and lie down comfortably. At the airport, trained animal handling teams manage their journey, with procedures in place covering everything from acceptance checks and secure loading to appropriate ventilation, temperature and water provision.
During the flight, pets travel in a pressurised, temperature-controlled area of the aircraft. On arrival, carefully coordinated handling and import procedures help move them through the final stages of their journey towards that all-important reunion.
Behind every successful pet flight is plenty of careful planning. Since 2011, My Pet Travel has helped owners navigate country-specific regulations, documentation and flight arrangements, working closely with airlines, airports and authorities to coordinate every stage of the journey. Just as importantly, our friendly team keeps owners informed throughout, so you always know what is happening with your pet.
Pet air travel is often much easier than owners imagine. With My Pet Travel by your side from the first enquiry to the journey itself, you can relax knowing your pet is in experienced and caring hands every step of the way.
