Pet Travel Success Stories
“If you are looking to relocate your pet bird outside the USA, then this is the company for you. Feathers and Fur Express had the knowledge and experience, to walk me through all the documents that was required to do this. They were with me right up to handing (Studley my parrot) over for departure and his flight from Atlanta, and at the other end of his journey in the UK. Marck and Lindsey and their team are just amazing. Thank You”
Lynn B, Pet Owner
“Excellent service for my baby. We were not the easiest clients and Feathers and Fur Express did an excellent job. Very experienced and reliable company. I would highly recommend them to anyone. During the move they were very responsive and sending updates of our baby. I worked with Rebecca and Lindsey, they are excellent at their job. My vet technician who worked on our health certificate told me that this was your favorite company they have ever worked with!”
Myriam B., Pet Owner
“With only 10 days notice Feathers & Fur made it all happen, they were so kind, professional & made the process stress free. They delivered my dog happy in perfect condition into my mother’s arms on schedule, updating me on their great app with photos & messages all the way and reassuring me as my dog made the journey. I could not recommend them highly enough.”
Anoushka S, Pet Owner
“We recently used FFExpress to ship our two pups to Europe. I couldn’t express my gratitude for them helping us!! We had a few hiccups but they did everything they could to help fix them. They took care of our two babies and made sure we knew they were safe the entire time. Would definitely recommend Feathers and Fur express to anyone!”
Mackensi S, Pet Owner
“We were at a loss for how to get our beloved pittbull/boxer mix from Atlanta to Girona, Spain. We’d almost lost hope when FFE gave us great recommendations on how we could be the process as smooth as possible with very clear instructions. We had no trouble, and our precious pup arrived with a wagging tail! Definitely a wonderful service!”
Ayesha M, Pet Owner
“Despite trying to move our Labrador from Houston during a pandemic and then a historic power failure on Houston, FFE came through for us. The team kept us in constant contact and went out of their way to help our veterinarian get set up with the USDA portal. Would highly recommend them for anyone moving pets internationally”
Mark Romanchock, Pet Owner
“Marck was really awesome. He took care care of all the paperwork and kept us updated. Great communication, great service! Our rabbit made it back home safely. Thank you!”
Emilie Dejardin, Pet Owner

Fly With Me
By angela passman.
I decided to write this book for several reasons. The first is when I realized that there isn’t really a lot on this topic available. Unlike pretty much everything else, where there is a wealth of information to sort through on the internet, when it comes to pet shipping and transportation, well, to say it’s lacking is an understatement! There isn’t a whole lot out there. It’s a real struggle trying to find information about the rules and regulations, about the actual process, about what an owner needs to do for a pet before the move, during the move, and even after the move.

Our Happy Customers
300+ Reviews
"Samantha is doing quite well. We were very pleased with your service. She is a very important member of our family and we were very stressed about her being on such a long flight. Thanks to all the personal assistance you gave me to prepare her, everything turned out better than we could have expected. If we should ever need to fly out pet again, I can’t imagine using any other service. I would highly recommend Starwood Animal Transport to everyone!"
"Blake and Raven had a wonderful journey. I don't think the trip phased them in the least. They are happily settled and enjoying life in Georgia. Kenny did a wonderful job taking care of them both. He was very conscience and caring, and made sure they were fine before leaving. I will definitely recommend your business to anyone needing to relocate their pet family."
"Thank you very much for your help in getting Cricket here. We are so happy to have him here and he is settling in. Of course the journey was long but he is now back to being his usual self. You really did make the entire process very smooth and easy and we never had to worry about anything. Thanks a lot!"
"Greg and I wanted to thank you very much for all your work to get Pepper safely back to Australia.I know that we bombarded you guys with a lot of anxious emails at one of your busiest times of the year. We wanted to put on the record that we sincerely thank you for all your guidance and patience with us, and especially for taking on Pepper’s move at a time when we were having trouble getting traction with another service provider – you got us back on track, and very quickly."
"All went very well and my parents and aunt were impressed with the care and organization of the people they met on each end. Thanks so much! Gigi is settling in and has no issues with her crate after the trip."
"The people you used at each step were wonderful. The girl who picked him up in Houston was wonderful. The man who delivered him here in Dubai – equally great. I know this is something you and your team do on a regular basis – but obviously this isn’t something we do – and to have our little dog with us here in our new home in Dubai makes our apartment here, our home! Of course, I shall recommend you to anyone wishing to fly a pet – and when it’s time for us to fly home, I’ll be in touch."
"After getting our family back (2 Goldens) from NY to London Gatwick I have to congratulate you and your global team for achieving what is no small achievement. Your service in managing the paperwork, the customs clearance, selecting the best airline and route and hand holding the vets through this timely but critical process was, I am sure the only reason everything went through without delay or undue stress. Thanks to you and to all of your team. You are a service benchmark."
"Thanks to Starwood Animal Transport, our first experience moving our dog internationally was a very successful one! The communication throughout the entire process was prompt, clear and comforting. Kudos to Ross, Sherry and Nick for providing great customer service.I do believe that in the end, our dog had better care and travel arrangements than we did. I highly recommend Starwood and will certainly use them again in the future."
"A very BIG thank you to you all! The trio arrived safe and sound this morning around 2am and they were absolutely fine. They seem to have settled well into their new home as if nothing ever happened. I so appreciate all the hard work, care and professionalism that made this relocation happen. 'Starwood' is on my top list of favourites and shall make sure everyone that is ever wanting to relocate pets shall know about you all!"
"I would like to thank you for the wonderful service transporting our four legged kids. It was not just transporting, your updates, the photos and most of all for that moment of happiness when they arrived. Priceless!"

Frequently asked questions
How do i get started with international pet shipping.
Of course, with Pet-Express to advise you, you don’t have to navigate your way through all those complex regulations alone. Our team can provide advice and coordinate every aspect of the move, from document preparation to the safe arrival at your new home.
Can pets travel on international flights?
Typically all animals travel in the cargo hold in an approved pet carrier or crate. Cargo holds have areas designated for live animals. These are pressurized and temperature controlled. Read our blog on the myths of pet transporting.
Which airlines ship pets?
As a professional pet shipping company, we work closely with most of the well-known airlines including:
- Alaskan Airlines
- American Airlines
- Copa Airlines
- British Airways
- Turkish Airlines
- TAP Air Portugal
Looking for a company that’s not on the list? Contact us to discuss your personal needs.
How much does it cost to ship a dog internationally?
How much does it cost to ship a cat internationally.
As is the case with dogs, the costs associated with transporting a cat internationally are difficult to quantify without having relevant details. However, our blog, How much does it cost to fly a cat internationally gives you a breakdown of typical requirements and costs. Keep in mind, these are impacted by forces beyond our control and are a guide only.
Will my pet need to be in quarantine?
Countries that do not require pets to be quarantined upon arrival from a foreign country are the US (except for Hawaii and Guam), most European countries (including the UK), and most countries in South America. However, if the animal is unwell when it arrives or some other issue arises, quarantining may be required.
International destinations that do require pets to be quarantined are:
- New Caledonia
- New Zealand
Is cargo travel really safe for my pet?
When it comes to transporting your pet internationally, safety is always the top concern for us as well as for you. So, when we say that transport in the cargo hold of an aircraft is safe for your pet, we assure you this is true. We ensure that every necessary precaution is taken to keep your pet safe and well during a flight.
Every carrier has a designated area for live animals. These are pressurized and temperature controlled. Travel crates must meet the approved standards and are always properly secured so there is no movement during the flight.
We don’t like to take risks with any animal, so we always choose airlines with the best reputation and track record for international pet transport. We also consult with your vet to make sure your pet’s health concerns are addressed before travel and it is in tip-top condition for their flight.

International Pet Moves
Moving your pet around the world.
There are hundreds of details to attend to when moving a pet offshore. Regulations vary by destination and frequently change. Engaging Air Animal to manage your pet's international move will ensure a smooth transition for you and your pet. We move pets to more than 165 countries and we’ve posted average bundled prices for some of the most common overseas destinations on this page.
Let’s talk! Start your pet’s move well before your relocation date by telling us more using our online request .
- Start six to 12 months before immigrating with your pet to the Pacific rim countries - Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Japan, the Fiji Islands.
- Start three months ahead when moving to Europe, the Middle East or Africa.
- Start two months ahead when moving to Central America, South America or the Caribbean.
- Start three weeks ahead when moving to Canada. See our domestic pricing for Canadian relocations.
Your pet relocation needs depend upon your pet’s species, breed, the number of pets relocating, each pet's weight, the flight kennel in which your pet flies, the origin, the destination, the pre-flight requirements, air transport charges, and in-transit care charges. That’s why we don’t do automated cookie-cutter replies. Sharing your plans using the online request allows your pet move manager to develop your itinerary and move proposal based on your move or flight date and thoughtful consideration of your needs.
Your international pet relocation average bundled price includes air cargo charges, relocation logistics, a pet travel kennel, laboratory charges for required blood tests, veterinary inspections, international health certificate preparation, in-transit care, pet hotel or quarantine if required, customs entry procedures, ground transport to a gateway airport if needed, and the specific requirements of the destination country.
Last minute cancellations and flight changes without notice still persist due to airline staffing and aircraft availability. These situations are out of our control. We will try our best to assist and reschedule. Air Animal will not compensate or reimburse for expenses when such situations arise.
Many clients call on us repeatedly and refer friends and family to us. Try us once and you'll understand why!

Pet Move Plan Ahead
Step 3: faqs.
De-stressing Your Move - Our Air Animal Pet Moving Made Easy ® App offers mobile and desktop concierge service exclusively for Air Animal clients. You’ll have your pet move and global tracking services in the palm of your hand. When you complete your online request your pet move manager will email your Air Animal App username and password. You will also receive scheduled email timelines outlining next steps before the move so you know exactly what is happening. You and your pet mover set the frequency of these updates.
Airline Partners - As an IATA-approved agency, Air Animal leverages pet transportation industry relationships and pet moving expertise built over more than 40 years to arrange your pet's move as live animal air cargo on commercial airlines. Pet moves by air are safer and cause less stress than moving your pet in the family car. Like all professional pet shipping companies, we are not a low-cost alternative to arranging your own move, nor do we own the planes.
The Industry Leader - Our longstanding relationships with commercial airlines and our intricate knowledge of the rules and regulations in over 165 countries have made Air Animal the top international animal shipping company in the United States. We know the international marketplace, quarantine issues, blood test and documentation requirements, and the preferred air carriers by destination better than anyone.
Booking Space - Space for pets is managed solely by the airlines. As an IATA-approved agency, Air Animal employs up-to-date online booking tools and reserves space for your pet when the airline offers a booking opportunity. We call these air waybills. Space is offered by airlines three to 30 days before the flight depending on the airline.
Ground Transport - If your pet is a large breed, ground transport to a gateway airport may be required. Wide body airplanes accommodating the extra-large and giant kennels are only available at gateway airports. Air Animal offers a nationwide network of service partners who will drive your pet to their departure airport.
We would like to warn our clients about pet scams. If someone has reached out to you claiming to be from Airpets International or claiming to have partnered with Airpets International in regards to selling puppies, it is a scam. Airpets International does NOT sell animals. LEARN MORE

We want every pet and family to have the best possible relocation experience. It’s why we ring a giant chime in the office every time a pet and its people are reunited! And it’s why we limit the number of monthly moves we manage.
Full-Service Support
From ensuring proper veterinary requirements are met to completing import applications and determining flight routing, we manage every step and update you along the way. Our prices reflect the high level of care and service we provide.
A Top-Notch Team
Our employees truly care about animals. We have pets in the office. We volunteer at rescues. We donate to pet-related causes. And our teams are destination-specific, so you benefit from a focused team with regional knowledge.
A Trusted Network
PetRelocation is a high-touch business that requires trained and certified people to move pets long distances. We’ve built personal relationships with trusted vendor partners worldwide and ensure that the people we hire to help move your pets meet standards that foster safe pet transport. Some of our clients’ highest praises reference our partners worldwide, who are essential to making these journeys possible.
A Lot of Love
We build strong relationships with our clients. Some still send us pictures of their pets long after they’ve moved. We always communicate clearly and honestly because no move is guaranteed to go completely according to plan. We’ll keep you updated and informed through each step of the process.

International Pet Relocation Specialists
What is international pet travel.
"Pet travel", "pet shipping", "pet relocation" or "pet transport" - it's called many things, but what does it entail?
Pet travel refers to the international logistics of live animals. While Bobby Air also handles domestic pet relocation, this type of pet transport is normally considered a "pet taxi service" - which is less complex than international pet travel. Going overseas with Fido or Felix?
Care in the Air
Trust Bobby Air with your furry friend
Based in Seoul, South Korea, our team of multilingual staff have decades of experience between us. Being able to communicate between various stakeholders in different languages is crucially important. Additionally, as animal-lovers and pet-owners ourselves, you can trust us to treat everyone, people and pets alike, with the utmost respect and care.
What do we do? How do we help?
As your pet travel agency, Bobby Air will handle all travel preparations, including ensuring your pet meets all medical regulations. Due to the long list of complexities, without an agent, international pet relocation can easily go wrong. And if you get it wrong, the airlines won't wait. We minimise stress for both people and pets by providing a tailored travel plan for you and your pet.

International & Connection Pet Travel
* For aircraft that have only one class cabin, a maximum of 4 kennels per aircraft is allowed. **Live animals are prohibited on all flights operating outside of the U.S. except Canada. To make sure your pet is taken care of, prior arrangements are necessary with all the carriers involved. If a pet has to transfer from a Delta flight to a Delta Connection, the Delta flight must be confirmed at least 48 hours before the scheduled departure time of the Delta Connection flight. That way we have enough time to make transfer arrangements between the two carriers and ensure your pet is safely delivered. Find More Information on Shipping Your Pet »
Pets to Hawaii
Though Hawaii is part of the United States, Hawaii takes extra care when bringing live animals into the state due to its unique ecosystems. Hawaii requires that all live animals shipped or brought into the state have health and rabies inoculation certificates dated no more than 10 days before travel begins. On Delta flights to Hawaii, pets will not be accepted as carry-on baggage.
Please note, Hawaiian quarantine facilities are located in Honolulu only; therefore, Delta cannot accept pets on nonstop flights to any other Hawaiian city. Delta does not participate in the Neighbor Island Dog and Cat Entry Program. Also as of October 1, 2016, Delta and Delta Cargo will no longer accept warm blooded animals on flights with an average flight time of greater than 12 hours.
Hawaii Quarantines
All cats and dogs are subject to a 120-day quarantine in Hawaii. If specific pre- and post-arrival requirements are met, your pet may qualify for a shorter (30-days or less) quarantine. Costs are charged to the pet owner and must be paid in full upon arrival. Payment methods include cashier's check, traveler's check, money order, personal check, or cash.
Seeing-eye dogs (and other service animals) are accepted with certain provisions, including making advanced arrangements and verifying availability and cost. For further information, visit the Hawaii Department of Agriculture or call 808-483-7151 .
International Pet Travel
If you’re traveling internationally with your pet, be prepared by knowing the strict regulations governing international pet travel. Remember to make arrangements in advance and note that Delta and Delta Cargo have a temporary embargo on all pet shipments effective until further notice. The embargo applies to all live, household animals (small dogs, cats and household birds) transported in the cargo hold underneath the aircraft throughout the domestic and international network. Exceptions apply for customers traveling with service animals and those in the U.S. Military or U.S. State Department Foreign Service Offices .
Take these steps before traveling to be fully prepared:
- Contact the embassy or consulate of the destination country to determine pet travel regulations
- Obtain all necessary paperwork (such as health certificates and documentation ) regarding your pet's travel
- Contact your local veterinarian to ensure your pet is in compliance with foreign health regulations
- Check with the CDC about the importation of pets into the United States
- Check with APHIS about international animal export regulations
- Terminal handling charges, customs clearance fees, veterinarian service, and/or kennel storage fees are in addition to shipping rates and will be charged to the shipper or pet owner upon arrival at destination airport
- All fees and charges must be paid in full prior to the release of your pet
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) issued a temporary ban on dogs traveling from Egypt for the protection of public health. The CDC will review this suspension periodically and Delta will provide updates as they become available. To ensure the protection and safety of our customers and their animals, Delta will place a temporary embargo on pet travel to and from Egypt.
When traveling to or from the United Kingdom, Delta will not accept any live animals as checked or carry-on baggage.
For pets traveling in the cabin to the Republic of Ireland, customers must notify the Department of Agriculture in advance at [email protected] , opens in a new window . Find additional information at the Republic of Ireland Pet Travel Portal .
For pets traveling to or from other countries in the European Union, a Veterinary Certificate for domestic dogs, cats, and ferrets entering the European Community for Non-Commercial Movement (Regulation (EC) No. 998/2003) is required. There is also another restriction concerning your pet. Only a microchip implant, and no longer tattoos, will be accepted as a means of identification. If your travel originates in Aruba, Bermuda, Canada, Japan, Cayman Islands, or the USA, parts 1 through 4 must be completed for movement into the European Union and requires 30 days of preparation for your pet. If your travel originates in any other country, parts 1 through 5 must be completed. These regulations require a minimum of four months preparation for your pet.
Service Dogs Traveling to London (Heathrow & Gatwick) or Manchester
Delta will transport service dogs to London (Heathrow & Gatwick) and Manchester with the proper documentation and compliance to the UK regulations for transporting animals. In order for a customer to transport their service dog, they must:
- Contact the appropriate Animal Reception Center in the city they are traveling to for more information and instruction on what will be needed to enter the United Kingdom. After booking, customers must contact the Animal Reception Center directly to plan for the arrival of their pet and to ensure that all necessary paperwork is completed in advance for the UK Customs clearance of your service dog.
- Provide a pre-approval letter from the Animal Reception Center in the city you are traveling to, indicating that your service dog has the appropriate documentation, has met the appropriate health requirements and has the proper micro-chip implant. Delta will ask for this documentation in order to process your request for transport of your service dog. Failure to present this pre-approval letter will result in denial of the service dog until the letter is provided.
- Pay all appropriate fees and charges related to UK acceptance of service dogs. A current list of charges can be provided by the Animal Reception Center for the city you are traveling to. For more information, please contact one of the appropriate Animal Reception Centers listed below.
For questions regarding transporting a service dog, please contact Delta at 1-800-221-1212 and ask to speak to the CRO Desk.
CRO Desk at Airport
Pets are not allowed in the cabin or as accompanied or excess baggage to/from Hong Kong. Special permit/import permit or quarantine permit is required for all animals and birds (including dogs & cats) applied before arrival in Hong Kong and they must be shipped as cargo covered by an air bill.
Pets are not allowed as checked baggage to or from South Africa due to concerns of animal safety and customs regulations. This restriction does not apply to service animals. South Africa recognizes service dogs and allows them in the cabin. All animals must travel as manifested cargo on an air waybill. Military exceptions do not apply.
Australian law does not allow pets as carry on or checked baggage. The only exception is for Service Animals with correct documentation. All pets must enter or depart via cargo.
New Zealand law does not allow pets as carry on or checked baggage. The only exception is Service Animals with correct documentation. All pets must enter or depart via cargo.
