Is there a service that will ship your pets on a small airplane ?

I heard of a charter service for your pets . They will transfer your pets personally for you so you dont have to worry about the big airlines|||Well, If you dont want them to sit with you or they are too big to, you can keep them in baggage area down below. Call the airlines you plan to fly out of and ask what there services are. Here is a site that is helpful when traveling with your pets: http://www.travelingpets.com/





Here are some rules that American Airlines has:


Pets Traveling In The Cabin


Please review the information below, then call Reservations at 800-433-7300 to check for availability and to make a reservation for the pet.


Accepted on domestic flights within the 48 contiguous United States, Alaska, Puerto Rico, St. Thomas and St. Croix.


Accepted from the U.S. to Canada, Mexico and the Caribbean provided the country of arrival permits entry.


No carry-on pets to/from Hawaii or Transatlantic/Transpacific or Central and South America.


See below for applicable Fees.


Charges are payable at the airport and the passenger must show the pet travel fee receipt at the departure gate.


The maximum size for cabin pet carriers is 23" long x 13" wide x 9" high. A pet kennel counts as either a passenger's one carry-on bag or personal item - a cabin pet Fee still applies, however.


Only one pet kennel per ticketed passenger may be accepted for travel in the cabin, as pets must stay under the seat in front of you during the entire flight.


Pet may not be removed from their kennel/container at any time while on-board the aircraft.


The kennel may contain two (2) dogs or two (2) cats but they must be the same species, ages between 8-weeks and 6-months, and weigh less than 20 lbs.


Animals must be able to stand up, turn around and lay down in a natural position in the kennel.


Soft-sided pet carriers are accepted as long as they are constructed of water-repellent, padded nylon with mesh ventilation on two or more sides.


Must be a minimum age of eight (8) weeks old for dogs and cats.


The maximum number of carry-on kennels allowed (on American Airlines flights accepting them) is seven per flight: two (2) in first class and five (5) in coach and/or business class. However, seeing eye/hearing service assist animals and search dogs are not counted in the maximum number allowed in the cabin.


On American Eagle and AmericanConnection庐, two kennels (at most) are allowed depending on the aircraft - please contact Reservations before your flight.


American assumes no liability for the health or well-being of carry-on pets.|||Try searching on "charter pet transport". The following site has a rather comprehensive list of transport options:
