8 Tips You Must Know When Traveling With Your Pet by Air
8 Tips You Must Know When Traveling With Your Pet by Air
By Elizabeth D.
Nothing beats a new adventure. To make it even
better, take your favorite furry friend along. You will both enjoy the new
sights, sounds and smells that await you. Here are a few tips to make your trip
easier, when traveling by air with your small pet.
- Plan Ahead - You will need to check with the
airline to ensure they allow pets in the main cabin of the aircraft. You will be
required to make a separate reservation for your pet. The cost per pet will
range from $70-$125 each way. Most airlines have a limit regarding the number of
pets they allow, in the main cabin, on each flight. So reserve your pet's flight
when you book your own.
- Pet Carrier -
You will need an airline approved pet carrier
for your little companion. Airline approved carriers are designed to fit under
the seat in front of you. However, many isle seats will not be large enough to
accommodate a pet carrier.
Go to your airlines website for more information on acceptable carriers and carrier dimensions. Your pet needs to be comfortable and have the
available space to stand and turn around inside the carrier. In
the weeks prior to your trip, work with your pet to get them comfortable with
their carrier. Including familiar items like a toy and
blanket are good idea. Just be sure the items you put in the carrier are
not too bulky. Please be aware, a pet carrier is considered a piece of carry-on
luggage. Most airlines only allow two pieces of carry on luggage per
passenger.
- Heath Certificate - Most airlines require a
current health certificate from your veterinarian. This means your pet must be
in good health and be up to date on all their shots. A current health
certificate is one that is obtained 10-30 days prior to travel. Check with your
airline to determine the appropriate time frame. If your trip will exceed the
airlines health certificate expiration time frame, you may need to obtain
another health certificate for your return flight home.
- Sedation - If you have never traveled by air
with your pet, or you have a high-strung pet, you may want to consider sedating
your pet. Talk to your veterinarian, at the time you are getting your health
certificate, to determine if this is appropriate for your pet. There are
herbal remedies available for calming and relaxing your pet. Rescue Remedy Pet is an excellent over the counter natural alternative
to prescription sedatives.
- Pre-Flight Meal - Be sure your pet's last
meal was at least 8 hours prior to flying. A light dinner, the night before
travel, is best. A slightly hungry pet will be more comfortable than a pet that
needs to evacuate. Bring along some small nibbles
for your pet to reward them for good behavior during your trip. Allow your pet
to drink water up to an hour before your flight. When in the terminal, pick up a
bottle of water. You can offer your pet a sip or two if you feel they may be
dehydrated.
- Potty Break - Always give your pet an
opportunity to go potty before your flight and on long lay overs (if
appropriate). In advance of your trip research where the Pet Relief areas are
located in the airports you will be traveling to. Be sure to bring your pet's
collar and
leash to
allow your pet to stretch their legs safely. Preston Ribbon offers a wide variety of collars and leashes that will express your personality through your pet.
Pick a matching collar and leash that is the same theme as your destination. Never
forget to bring a supply of poop bags.
- Airport Pet Etiquette - Almost all airports
do not allow pets to be out of their carriers when
in the terminal. However, this rule seems to vary widely from airport to
airport. Familiarize yourself with each airport's rules as they relate to pets.
You may see dogs on leash in the
airport, but this doesn't mean it is allowed. Airports can be very crowded with
passengers running through airports with large pieces of luggage in tow. Not to
mention, the passenger transfer carts zipping through the terminal. It is best
to keep your little-one off the ground.
- Clothing - It is not recommended to outfit your pet with a shirt, sweater or coat when traveling by plane. This may cause them to overheat and can hinder their ability to move causing them to get tangled inside the carrier. However, plane cabin temperatures can be unpredictable. You also need to take into account the temperature of the locations you will be visiting. Bring along a shirt or sweater, in the event, the plane is too cold. If you feel the need to clothe your pet, check on them periodically.

8 Things to Consider When Traveling With Your Dog
8 Things to Consider When Traveling
With Your Dog
By Elizabeth D.
If you are
like me you want to take your dogs with you everywhere you go, and vacations are
no exception. In fact, many of the destinations I choose are a result of pain
staking research to determine acceptable locations for my dogs and me. For
example, we just returned from Howard Creek Ranch Inn, a rustic B&B on the
Mendocino coast of California. Howard Creek Inn is pet friendly with acres of
old growth forest to hike and direct access to the beach. We had a great time
because we did the following:
- Plan Ahead: Find places that are pet friendly. More and more hotels and B&B's are allowing pets for a nominal fee. Call ahead to find out if there are any restrictions they may have regarding pet size or the number of pets allowed. Most hotels and B&B's will not allow you to leave your dog unattended in the room unless they are crated. AAA offers the guide "Traveling with Your Pet" which is available at most book stores.
- Pre-Travel Meal: Feed your dog a light meal before you travel. Depending on how much time you have available from feeding time to your departure time, will determine how much to feed your pet. You know your pet's digestion and evacuation schedule. Just plan accordingly. If you will be flying, it is best to skip breakfast.
- Potty Breaks: Everybody needs potty breaks and your dog is no exception. This a good time for you and your dog to stretch your legs. Make sure his collar or harness is on and you can locate his leash. Lastly, be sure to bring along an ample supply of poop bags. Be considerate and clean up after your dog. Dog waste just doesn't magically disappear. Look to Dog Bag for their large assortment of waste bags and dispensers. All Dog Bag poop bags are made of recycled plastic.
- Bring Water: Believe or not, your dog can get dehydrated just sitting in the back seat of the car. Bring water from home or pick up some bottled water. You will need a water bowl. There are many water bowls available today designed just for travel. Doggles manufactures a wide variety of unique and creatively decorated travel bowls.
- Seat Belt: We all know about the seat belt laws. It's not a myth, seat belts save lives. What is not talked about is that it may save your pet's life to. Your pet's safety should be your primary concern since she can't buckle her own seat belt. She can ride in safety and comfort, in the back seat, with the right gear. A travel harness is a great option. A travel harness will allow your pet to be safely restrained in the case of a sudden stop or accident. Doggles offers a line of standard harnesses that come equipped with a car seat restraint loop. This is a great travel option that allows you to easily detach her from the car's seatbelt, then attach her leash and go for a walk.
- Toys and Blankets: Dogs find a sense of comfort and security when they are surrounded by familiar possessions. Always bring their favorite toys and blankets or beds. Familiar smells and textures will ease your pet's travel anxiety.
- Treats: Who doesn't like a treat while traveling? Hours cooped up in the car can be improved with a nice treat. A few treats make travel more fun your pooch. But, use them sparingly. You don't want to expedite the pooping process. It's uncomfortable for your pet and may require additional stops.
- Travel by Air: I will tell you right now, I am not a big fan of "checking" my pet in like a piece of luggage. Yes, he is a tough dog. Yes, the airlines say they are experts at shipping pets. Just do your due diligence. Now, if your pup fits under the seat, that's another story. Traveling by airplane you will need proper puppy paperwork. Check with the airline to determine what paperwork they require. Your vet will be able to assist you with all paper work requirements. You will also need an "airline approved" carrier. There are a host of stylish options, on the market, that are approved for airline travel and will allow you to look sophisticated about town.
Traveling
with your favorite furry friends is best if you plan a head. Follow the tips
above to have great vacation.
