Pet Shipping


Shipping a pet is a stressful experience for most pet owners. There are many details regarding the shipment of a dog or cat that must be attended to -- especially when overseas pet shipment is concerned.

In planning for your pet's shipment, allow for plenty of lead-time, especially if you're shipping your pet abroad, so that all the preparations are in place well before your departure. That way, you and your pet can take the big move in stride.

Every country has its own set of customs regulations, procedures, and health and documentation requirements. These can be quite complicated and must be followed precisely.

A domestic move can be easily arranged for. The international moves are more complicated because the regulations vary from country to country. Using a pet shipper alleviates some of the stress

IPATA member shippers -- numbering more than 200 in 30 countries -- must demonstrate appropriate experience, must be properly licensed in their countries, and must agree to adhere to IATA's Live Animal Regulations, the international standard for the care of animals in shipment. According to Young, member companies make use of airlines with facilities and handling procedures that have been verified to meet standards of quality and safety.

IPATA maintains a searchable list of pet shippers worldwide with a detailed listing of their specific services. The list can be searched alphabetically by name, or by airport location.
It's important to keep in mind that IPATA is a trade organization, not a shipper. Each IPATA member is an individual company with its own practices, procedures, services, and rates. Compare the costs and services of several different companies before making your choice.

Various levels of service are available from different shippers, ranging from basic airport-to-airport service to comprehensive door-to-door service. The cost of shipping a pet varies widely, depending on the degree of service sought and the destination. Naturally, international shipping is more expensive than domestic.

New Security Directive Affects Non-U.S. Origin Cargo


The U.S. Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has issued a new Security Directive effective 1700 GMT March 10, 2011. This Directive mandates changes in security measures applicable to cargo shipments originating, transiting, or transferring at all non-U.S. locations.


Continental Airlines Cargo continues to accept cargo from all our customers as we work with the TSA to validate the impact and ramifications of this Directive.


Compliance with the new Directive requires carriers to determine whether the forwarder/
consolidator’s customer has had an established account with the forwarder for at least one
year. Forwarders are required to attest to this relationship by submitting the following revised
MAWB statement:


“All shipments tendered on this Master Air Waybill were received from persons having an established account for at least one year with a physical shipping address and a payment, invoice, or credit history of at least one year.”


When possible, this statement should accompany the shipment at time of tender. The statement may be written on the air waybill or other shipment documentation or may be included on a separate document. The version of the MAWB Acceptance Statement required by previous Directives is no longer valid or required.


Separate security measures apply to shipments tendered by regulated agents who provide the statement above, and to cargo from unregulated agents or agents who do not provide the statement. United Cargo will continue to accept cargo tendered both with and without this statement, and will apply the appropriate security protocols.


We will issue further updates on this issue as the impact of the new Directive is clarified. If you have any questions on this issue, please contact your cargo sales manager. We appreciate your support and continued strong business relationship.

How safe is it to ship my pet by air?

A letter written by Senators Robert Menendez (D-N.J.), Richard Durbin (D-Ill.) and Joseph Lieberman (I-Conn.) calling on Secretary of Transportation Ray LaHood to review current regulations concerning the reporting of animal deaths on commercial airlines:

"While concerns about the reporting of pet fatalities voiced by Senators Menendez, Durbin and Lieberman are valid, changing the way airlines report the deaths of pets will not save lives in the long run."

"Our national focus should be on proactive ways to make pet travel safer and acknowledging that professional pet travel companies help pet owners avoid tragic mistakes, like using crates that are not adequately ventilated or booking pets on airlines that are not able to safely accommodate animals."

A special compartment in the cargo section, designed for Live Animals It is fully pressurized and same temperature as the passenger cabin.  This area is VERY carefully monitored by the Captain and staff.  

Yes, it does have some noise..

Pet owners can minimize these risks.  

Major problems resulting in death or serious health issues result from: brachycephalic breeds of cats and dogs; and having the brachycephalic respiratory syndrome.  Also, elderly pets.  And, those having congenital or pre-existing health issues.  These pets often have pre-existing heart disease resulting in pulmonary congestion and edema.  Then, if a death occurs, one is often inclined to blame the airline. 

Kennel construction is most often the problem with escapes, etc.  Many kennels have very poor connection devices.

Many pet injuries occur when some pets scratch and try to escape.  Pet shippers and airlines can NOT be  responsible for highly agitated pets.  If you have a pet that meets any of the above criteria as being a risk factor, just do NOT ship these pets.

Most reputable pet transportation companies are members of a group called the Independent Pet and Animal Transportation Association (IPATA). The association regulates and monitors the pet transportation industry by setting ethics standards and overseeing the performance of their members. As part of their membership, pet shipping companies are given access to a network of pet transportation professionals globally who have guaranteed reputations for the services they provide.

How many pet owners are willing to use the services given by  reputable IPATA members? 

Due to IPATA's exacting standards for membership, affiliates are able to safely coordinate this specialized service for the most precious of cargo. As a way of bridging the gap often found in an international industry, IPATA also offers an annual conference where the members gather to meet and exchange ideas, attend classes on country import requirements and species-specific handling techniques, and attend forums where reps from major airlines come to answer questions in a round-table format. International requirements vary from country to country, so working with a quality pet transport or shipping company who is also up to date on the current import requirements is crucial.


The risk of extreme temperatures affecting the pet's safety is one of the other significant concerns among pet owners, many airlines will even embargo pets during the winter and summer months. But most reputable pet transportation companies work with airlines that have programs in place to keep pets in climate-controlled areas the entire duration of the flight. The pet is never exposed to extreme weather and this allows companies to transport pets all over the world year-round.

Some airlines are not adequately set up to take care of animals in the event that there is a delay or emergency. "Pet friendly" airlines have developed dedicated pet programs to care for their four-legged travelers that keep them in climate control not only while in the plane, but also while waiting to board. These airlines also have kennel facilities at their main hubs, where during layovers, all of the pets pet are checked on, watered and if necessary, served meals.

    WHY YOUR PET MIGHT NOT ALLOWED INTO THE AIRPLANE

    These are some of the reasons why your pet may not be allowed to fly:

    1. Overly hot or cold conditions mean that the airline concerned will refuse to fly your pet until a more temperate climate ensues.
    2. Heavy traffic conditions and During Christmas rushes traffic (December 7th to January 15th).
    3. Incomplete documentation to the importing countries' specifications. (Be prepared for extra costs in boarding and quarantining until these issues resolved).
    4. The kennel must be up to IATA regulations ( the construction, and allowances for the pet's height and length within)
