Flying your new pet
home is a safe and simple way of transport. If it were not safe, we
would choose a different way to transport them. We fly our pets
every Friday. We will fly pets on additional days for major holidays, such
as Christmas. When your pet arrives at the airport, you will pick
him/her up at the airport baggage services department or ticket
counter, depending upon the airline. Upon showing a valid ID, the
airline will release your new pet to you.
We ship Internationally and shipping costs can
vary, depending on some airport destinations. Some airlines may
also charge a "transfer fee" of $40 depending upon the
airline.
In addition to airfare, shipping includes a microchip, health certificate,
receipt, vaccination record, one-year health guarantee, a travel crate,
registration papers, if applicable, and puppy starter food.
