What International Pet Transport Actually Includes

More Than Booking a Flight

International pet transport is rarely just about getting a pet onto an aircraft. The journey may involve veterinary preparation, permits, airline restrictions, travel kennels, customs, quarantine, ground transport and destination handling. We bring these elements together into one relocation plan.

Route Planning

We review airlines, connections, transit airports and travel methods to identify a viable route for your pet.

Veterinary Preparation

We coordinate the vaccinations, tests, treatments and veterinary documentation required for the journey.

Airline Arrangements

We organise the applicable in-cabin, accompanied-baggage or manifested-cargo arrangements.

Travel Kennel Support

We help determine the appropriate kennel size and requirements for your pet and airline.

Customs & Arrival

We coordinate customs, quarantine, destination handling and release where required.

Ground Transport

Collection and onward delivery can be arranged where available.

How can your pet travel internationally?

In Cabin

Your pet travels with you inside the passenger cabin in an airline-approved carrier.

Best suited for:

Small dogs and cats that meet the airline’s weight, carrier-size and route requirements.

Accompanied Baggage

Your pet travels in the aircraft hold while you travel on the same flight.

Best suited for:

Medium and larger pets where the airline offers accompanied-baggage transport.

Manifested Cargo

Your pet travels through the airline’s live-animal cargo system under an air waybill.

Best suited for:

Large pets, unaccompanied pets, restricted routes and destinations requiring cargo entry.

I Look at the Entire Journey, Not Just the Flight

“When I assess a relocation, I do not automatically choose the cheapest flight or the shortest-looking itinerary. I look at the pet, the breed, kennel size, transit airport, aircraft, weather, import requirements and what happens after landing.

Sometimes the most obvious route is not the best one. Sometimes travelling through another country gives us a better solution. And sometimes I will recommend waiting rather than arranging a journey I am not comfortable with.

Every Fly Your Tail relocation is personally reviewed before we recommend a transport plan.”

Direct Is Not Always Better

A direct flight can be ideal, but not always. A suitable relocation route depends on more than flight time.

The objective is not simply to find a flight. It is to build a journey that works operationally for the pet and complies with the relevant regulations.
