Crate Your Purrfect Journey: Essential Guidelines for Your Pet's First-Class Flight
Planning a sky-high adventure with your furry friend? Let's ensure their in-flight experience is paws-itively perfect!
1. Spacious Suite
Your pet deserves room to unwind. See our crate measuring guide to select a crate that allows them to:
- Stand up comfortably
- Turn around easily
- Snooze with at least 3 inches of headspace
No cramped cabins here!
2. Fortress of Furtitude
Opt for a sturdy, leak-proof crate with the following features:
- Non-collapsible, hard materials
- Four-sided ventilation
- Metal mesh doors with secure locking pins (no top door loaders!)
3. Home Sweet Crate
Create a cozy space:
- Line the bottom with absorbent bedding and a familiar blanket or towel.
- We'll mount food and water dishes (two) inside (frozen water bowls are welcome travel companions!).
4. Pawsome Packing List
- Leash Luggage: We can attach leashes and collars to the crate for security, but double-check regulations. Keep valuables with you.
- Kibble Courier: One clear ziplock of kibble can hitch a ride on the crate, but feed light and remember no more than half-meal rule on flight day!
- Medications & More: Prescription bottles only, no rubber or metal toys, bones, rawhides, or electronic gadgets. Feeling antsy? Let's discuss natural calming options.
Bonus Tip
Tuck in a familiar scent with a blanket or toy for extra comfort.
