✈️ Episode Intro: Fasten Your Fur-belts

Planning to take your floof to another city, province, or continent? Whether you’re escaping winter or heading home for the holidays, flying with a pet requires more than booking a window seat and tossing a treat in the carrier.

From decoding airline policies to prepping your pup (or purr-machine) for cabin life, this guide ensures your pet travels safely, stress-free, and maybe even… paws-itively zen?

🛫 Choose Wisely: Not All Airlines Love Pets Equally

Every airline has different policies, weight limits, breed restrictions, and rules for cabin vs. cargo.

📋 Checklist When Choosing an Airline:

• Does it allow in-cabin pets? (Usually <8kg/17lbs)

• Is there a pet travel fee?

• Are there temperature/seasonal restrictions for cargo pets?

• Does your pet’s carrier fit under the seat?

🛎️ Pro Tip: Call the airline after booking to confirm they’ve noted your pet’s reservation. Only a limited number of pets are allowed per flight!

🎒 Pre-Flight Prep: It’s Not Just About the Carrier

To avoid last-minute surprises:

🛂 Documents You Might Need:

• Vet-issued health certificate (within 10 days)

• Vaccination record (especially rabies)

• Pet passport (for international travel)

🎒 Carrier Essentials:

• Lined with absorbent padding

• Familiar toy or blanket inside

• Well-ventilated and airline-approved size

• Labeled with your contact info

🧘 Desensitization tip:

Have your pet nap in the carrier daily for 2 weeks prior to the flight. Feed treats or meals inside it so it feels like a happy place.

🧴 Mid-Flight Comfort & Calming Hacks

Cabin pressure + noises = anxiety for pets.

🧘‍♂️ Soothe the stress with:

• Pheromone sprays on bedding

• CBD or calming chews (ask vet first)

• Avoid sedatives unless your vet insists

• No feeding 3–4 hours pre-flight to prevent nausea

• 💧Bring a foldable water bowl & ice cubes for slow hydration mid-flight.

🌍 International Travel: It’s a Whole New Leash

Cross-border travel with pets means paperwork city. Every country has different entry rules.

🌎 Key Musts:

• Microchip & rabies certificate

• Import permits or vet inspections

• Quarantine rules (some countries require 10+ days)

• Chew toys or calming treats

• Lint roller (because fur happens)
