FAQ - AIRBORNE ANIMALS
Can I clear customs myself?
Yes, you can clear customs yourself depending on where your final destination is. If your pet is going to the UK or Narita Japan, you will need a clearing agent. If your pet is going to China, The Philipines, India, Japan, or South Africa, It is highly recommended to have a clearing agent.
Do You Transport All Breeds?
Yes, some breeds such as snub nose or strong breeds, are restricted on MOST airlines, but there are options for Hawaii and International flights depending on your destination. We can also ship birds and Exotic pets from our subsidiary company, Airborne Animals.
Can My Pet Fly in Cold / Hot Weather?
The “too cold to fly” myth confuses many pet owners – no one wants to see their beloved family member suffer from cold or overheating. The airlines that we use are experienced in animal transport, and your pet rides in a climate-controlled section that is pressurized with the same atmospheric conditions as the cabin. While waiting for their flight (once checked in), your pet waits in an indoor area, out of the elements, where airline cargo staff keeps tabs on them. With that being said, temperatures must be between 45-85 degrees.
