At Paws & Wheels Transport, we understand the unique challenges of transporting pets over long distances, especially when it involves air travel. Our Air Travel Program is designed to make the process as smooth and stress-free as possible for both you and your furry friends. Here’s how it works:
1. Initial Consultation:
Start by contacting us to discuss your pet's travel needs. During this consultation, we’ll gather important information about your pet, including their size, breed, health status, and any special requirements. We’ll also discuss your travel timeline and any specific airline regulations that may apply.
2. Travel Planning:
Once we have all the necessary details, our team will create a customized travel plan for your pet. This includes booking the flight, arranging for any necessary veterinary checks, and ensuring all required documentation is in order. We work closely with airlines to ensure your pet’s journey is as comfortable and safe as possible.
3. Pre-Travel Preparation:
Before the travel date, we’ll provide you with a checklist of items to prepare for your pet’s journey. This may include a suitable travel crate, comfort items, and any necessary medication. We’ll also offer tips on how to acclimate your pet to their travel crate to reduce anxiety during the flight.
4. Day of Travel:
On the day of travel, our experienced transporters will pick up your pet from your home and ensure they are safely transported to the airport. We handle all check-in procedures and stay with your pet until they are securely boarded on the plane. If your pet requires special handling, we’ll coordinate with the airline to accommodate their needs.
5. In-Flight Care:
During the flight, your pet will be monitored by airline staff trained in handling animals. We choose airlines with the best reputation for pet care to ensure your pet’s safety and comfort throughout the journey.
6. Arrival and Delivery:
Upon arrival at the destination airport, our team will be there to greet your pet and handle the pick-up process. We’ll then transport your pet to their final destination, whether it’s your new home, a temporary residence, or another specified location. We’ll keep you updated throughout the journey and provide a final confirmation once your pet is safely delivered.
7. Follow-Up:
After the trip, we’ll follow up to ensure your pet has settled in well and address any concerns you may have. Your pet’s well-being is our top priority, and we’re here to support you every step of the way.
