Air Travel And Ideas For You And Your Dog

Air travel is forever on the increase and an astounding  number of us have to fly with our pets. For some time now  families have elected to take their family pet on vacations while preferring to leave them at home when traveling abroad or when taking a flight. As air travel reduces in price the thought of taking our pet with us seems worth consideration. The article below looks at Pets, Air Travel, concentrating on flights in England, Scotland and Wales.

Air Travel, Pets, and the Rules & Regulations

One of the most important factors to keep at the front of your mind in relation to air travel and pets is the law. In Great Britain there are a few laws which may apply, such as the “Safe Air Travel for Animals Act” (2000).   Recently there has been an increase in security and where you once may have been allowed to carry small pets with you on a flight this may no longer be the case. It is, therefore, incredibly importance that you check the situation with the airline before booking your flight. Virtually all airlines now stipulate clearly that all pets and small animals must be transported in suitable containers in the cargo hold. This is obviously far safer than risking an animal becoming distressed and causing a problem.

Even though all pets or other small animals are these days restricted to the cargo hold some caring airlines will permit a passenger to monitor the animal being put onto and taken off the plane. However it is of incredible importance that, when you book you seek further advice about it from the airline.

Other Important Points To Remember

1. The Container For Your Pet

It is also most incredibly important that you choose a pet box of the correct weight, size and type for the animal that will be living in it for the length of the flight. There should always be sufficient excess space for the pet to be able to move about easilyat all times. The longer the duration of the flight the more increased the amount of surplus room needed.

2. Security/Safety Measures And Air Travel With A Pet

At every moment your pet container should be clearly visible to the airline staff to avoid loss, which is always possible with any air travel. All pet boxes should be marked clearly with both the destination and a home address and full contact details. Also it is advised strongly that you include the details of another person in case of emergencies when you can’t be contacted. As well as applying labels on the outside also think about also adding some to the interior.  Furthermore go to some length to make certain that your pet has a close fitting collar with an identification tag or similar. The risk of loss is least during continuous flights.

If it is within your budget it also worth considering having your creature fitted with an electronic tag which is inserted beneath the coat by a vet. As soon as you know when and the location you will be traveling to make an appointment at the vets (or at least call) as he will be able to give important advice on what the requirements are when flying to another area or country. Your pet may require inoculations and there may be other precautions or restrictions to think about.

Planning for the future is always the finest idea and the simple fact that you are at the bottom of this article is a wise decision. By ensuring you take in the pet air travel tips & hints outlined above and by looking for further hints and tips online and from your vet, you can be sure that you pet travels securely and safely while suffering the minimal amount of disturbance.
