Pet Travel: Please Plan In Advance!

19/4/2017

0 Comments

 
The importance of planning international pet travel in advance, can not be stressed enough.  The one who suffers most from lack of adequate travel planning is your pet.  And your pocket!  Future planning any overseas adventures with pets allows you time to crate train, vaccinate your pets and budget your pets' transport into the other costs of moving overseas.  Your pet courier will break it down for you.

Your pets need time to be vaccinated and tested.  If flying long haul, especially to Europe, they will likely need rabies vaccinations.  Rabies vaccines take 30 days to develop antibodies in the bloodstream in cats and dogs.  Then you must allow time to receive their test results which come from labs in England.  All flying pets must be in tiptop health at departure or they will not be rejected by MPI.

Pets flying internationally from New Zealand need time to get comfortable with their IATA  approved travel crate.  Even if they are crate-trained or have flown overseas before, warm them up for the journey.  Crate training is best done in a low pressure environment that is not time sensitive.  Prevent any anxiety about cratetraining to a specific date by allowing a buffer of months not weeks..  You want to avoid any anxious associations with your crate and travel prospects entirely.

Whilst pet transport is often more affordable than most people think, it is an unknown quantity until you request a quote.  Unlike flying humans, where booking fees are standard regardless of how tall or heavy you are, booking flights for pets is not the same.  The volumetric weight charge is unique to each animal; how much space they occupy in the cargo hold and how much they weigh.  Once you know how much the your pet's travel tickets will cost, you can plan when and how to pay accordingly..

Daisy demonstrates she doesn't take up much space! This clever cat flew to London just before Easter.
Planning in advance allows you time to prepare your pets and budget your travel with a nice time cushion, just in case vaccination goes curly or crate training takes a little longer than anticipated.  Most importantly, it ensures both humans and pets have a pawsitively awsome travel experience together! Contact one of our knowledgable pet transport consultants to get your pet travel plan underway!

P.S. If you think your friends would like this too, we'd love you to share it.  Thank so much, you rock!

Pet courier nz cost to take dog to australia from new zealand flights for pets dog transport boxer
When taking a dog to Australia, everyone wants to know how much it costs.  Unlike relocating humans, with one-size-fits-all seat prices; airfares for moving pets to Australia vary greatly. How much it costs to fly your dog depends on their destination, the breed and the size of the dog you are transporting.

For Baxter the Boxer, Pet Transport organised his travel cage and flights to Melbourne from Auckland Airport.  A male boxer costs more than a female fox terrier due to the volumetric weight calculation all airlines use to price flying your pet overseas.  This includes the height and weight of the dog you are taking to Australia.  It also measures the amount of space your pets travel cage will occupy on board.
