- Start your journey with your pet carrier clean and fresh.
- Acclimate your pets to travelling in their carrier by transporting them on a series of shorter trips before the airline trip. The smell of a pair of your well worn socks left in your pet's carrier will help comfort your pet while traveling.
- Most pets will travel in the aircraft hold area. Only very small pets can travel in the cabin.
- Your pets will need a health certificate from your veterinarian before travelling. Check with the appropriate authorities to ensure that you comply with all regulations and documentation well in advance.
- Before departure, research and find a good veterinarian, close to your vacation destination.
- Make sure your pets have ID tags with all relevant information, at all times, when travelling.
- Pets are affected by jet lag in the same way humans are. On arrival keep your pets active and in the sunlight, keep habits the same and don't allow them to oversleep on arrival at your destination.
- Take baby wipes, treats, a supply of fresh newspaper and old disposable blankets for use at your destination.
- Ask your airline to make sure your pet get enough water and will be well hydrated while traveling.
- At your destination keep your pets routine the same as at home.
- Feed your pets the same pet food at your destination if possible. If their pet food is not available at your destination, research and find pet food as similar as possible to what your pet eats at home.
- Make sure in advance your pets will be accepted wherever you'll be staying at your destinations.
