Want to travel in a long time with the whole family, but worried about leaving pets alone at home? You also hesitate to use animal care services because fear of not been well cared.
One solution is to bring pets when traveling. If you choose to travel by air transport, there are some important things that must be considered.
Before Flight
- In addition to packing the goods and the need for the entire family, don’t forget to also prepare your pet needs. Make sure the food and beverages for animals fulfilled during the trip.
- Quoted from eHow, some airline companies usually require you to tell if will fly with your dog or cat. For that, you also have to book separate tickets for pets with cheaper ticket prices.
- At the airport, make sure the crate or cage is locked properly. Your pet should also wear a necklace with pet’s name badge, your name and telephone number. The airline usually will put sticker info, such as flight number, destination, home addresses and so forth.
- Before entering the aircraft, providing details to the stewardess if you are traveling with pets. Ask the airline staff to make sure the temperature in the compartment under normal circumstances for your animal. Ask also to notify staff if there is something wrong during the trip.
When Flight
- Animals that are small, such as Chihuahuas are usually allowed to be brought into the cabin. As long as its body size is small enough to be placed under a bench in front of you. Make sure your animals always in the cage or other places during the flight to prevent animal waste scattered in the cabin.
- If your pet is too big must be placed in the cargo or baggage. Place your animals in a strong cage, not easily fall when there is shocks and easily moveable. Maybe your dog/cat will be afraid or uncomfortable during the flight, so please complete the cage with thick blankets, food and toys.
- After landing, immediately go to daycare suitcases and other items to ensure your pet is in good condition. Your pet can also be calm and happy when I saw the owner come to pick up.
