Nowadays, many people keep pets, and they are very good to pets. They even take them with them when traveling. So many people will have this question, that is, can pets fly? Also, will it be harmful for pets to fly? Today’s article will give you the answer.
Pets are usually not allowed to enter the cabin with their owners. However, with permission from the airline, working dogs such as guide dogs and hearing aid dogs can be placed in the cabin. Domesticated cats, small pet dogs, birds or other ornamental pets can be placed in the aerobic cabin of the flight as checked baggage. Pets that are too small or too large are not allowed to be carried as baggage.
China's civil aviation regulations stipulate that the small animals accepted by airlines for transportation refer to domesticated dogs, cats, birds or other ornamental pets. Wild animals and animals with strange shapes or animals that are easy to hurt people, such as snakes, cannot be transported as baggage, but can be transported as cargo. In addition, most airlines stipulate that animals that are pregnant, lactating, or within 48 hours of giving birth are not allowed to be checked in.
Airlines will require passengers to provide animal quarantine certificates (valid health certificates and vaccination certificates) issued by health and quarantine departments at or above the county level. It should be noted that the quarantine certificate is valid for up to 7 days, so the date of departure must be within the validity period of the animal quarantine certificate. Before purchasing a ticket, passengers need to confirm whether the flight they are traveling on allows pets, that is, whether there is a live animal cargo compartment. Airlines have restrictions on the number of pets such as dogs and cats that can be checked in. Passengers must book an aerobic cabin for their pets and it is best to apply to the airline at least 3 days in advance.
Okay, after reading this, everyone knows that pets can actually be brought on board planes if they meet the requirements.
