On the day of your pet’s transport
- Ensure your pet drinks plenty of water and is well hydrated.
- Allow your pet to stretch their legs before hopping into their travel crate, you can do this by taking them for a walk, or having a play inside.
- You may place your pets’ blanket or small soft toy in their travel crate to put them at ease, but please be aware this may be removed by customs if it is deemed a risk.
- Have all of your pet transport document and your pet’s vaccination papers ready.
- Jetpets vets do not recommend sedating your pet before their flight. If your pet is particularly anxious, you may wish to use natural stress relievers such as Feliway and Adaptil to assist.
Ready for take off!
- Prior to their flight, pets relax in our Jetpets transit lounge facilities, located in major capital cities Australia-wide. Before boarding, our experienced Pet Handlers will give your pet an opportunity to stretch their legs, have a toilet stop, a drink and make sure they are ready for take off!
- Pets travel in comfort in airline compliant travel crates that perfectly suit your pets size.
What happens during the flight?
- The experience your pet has while flying is actually very similar to the one we have as humans. The air temperature is controlled and pressurised, and the lights are dimly light, making for a relaxing travel journey.
- Want to know how pet transport works? Our animal ambassador Sahara and her handler Dave take you behind the scenes at the airport, to show you exactly what happens when your pet travels on an aircraft.
