Dog transport FAQs

Preparing dogs for international air travel involves several essential steps, including:

  1. Ensure your pet is up to date on vaccinations and obtains a health certificate from a licensed vet.
  2. Familiarise them with their travel container, and pack essentials such as food, water, and comfort items.
  3. Discuss any specific travel needs or concerns with our team to ensure a smooth journey.

For dog travel on international flights, we will supply your  travel container and there should be enough space for your pet to stand, turn around, and lie down comfortably. It will be well-ventilated and secure. Check out our travel container page here or chat with one of our experienced staff to select the appropriate size and type of container to ensure the safety and comfort of your four-legged friend.

When it comes to dog transport, there are a range of quarantine, government, airline and air travel regulations and requirements that need to be met before your dog can travel. Our team is experienced in domestic and international dog transport and can help you through all of the regulations to ensure that your pet travel arrangements can be made seamlessly. Pet owners can relax knowing that our pet transport company is fully equipped to provide smooth, safe and positive pet transport solutions for their furry friend.

There are some airlines that have restrictions on dog breeds, such as brachycephalic (i.e. pugs and French bulldogs), due to their respiratory issues. It’s best to get in touch with us to discuss your pet prior to booking flights so we can organise the most appropriate airline and route.
No, pets don’t travel in the passenger cabin. They fly in the aircraft’s dedicated pet cargo hold, which is temperature-controlled, pressurised, and designed to keep them safe and comfortable throughout the journey.

It’s not uncommon for dogs to become anxious during pet transport, which is why our team ensures your dog is as relaxed and comfortable as possible before their journey begins. For pet pick-ups and drop-offs, our vehicles are temperature-controlled for your pet’s well-being on the way to the airport. We also walk all pets before they go into their airport transport container and ensure the inside is comfortable and inviting.

No toys are allowed as they may be a choking hazard. We recommend items like a blanket or shirt with your scent to provide comfort and reduce anxiety during the trip.
