I have a dog and a cat , and we are going to be moving to the other side of the world . Our family was wondering if our pets will fly on the same plane so we don't have to wait/ miss our flight ( we have 2 stops)
also would they not allow dogs that bark alot?
BTW : airlines is Cathay pacific
Answer
Here's what Cathay Pacific wrote about pets-
"Except service dogs, no pet or animal of any description will be permitted in our passenger cabin. Pets such as dogs, cats and birds will be crated and transported in the cargo compartment. Please check with the local government office for all documentation required (i.e. health certificates and travel permits) if you plan to fly with your pet.
Pets might not be allowed to ship as checked baggage to some countries/regions e.g. Hong Kong. Please contact booking/reservation for more information. For pets shipped as checked baggage, prior notification is required upon booking/reservation."

Answer
It depends upon where you're shipping from so you'll have to map your route and call air cargo for the cost. My last flight was with one cat and the total cost from Mebourne to Denver was $150 (plus, about, $30 in tips). If you're shipping from the east coast to west, you'll need to book a flight with a minimum of stops. Also, on this route (say from New York or Miami), the animals will need to be "rested" for 24 hrs. in Hawaii (is my guess) as it's illegal to allow an animal to be flown for more than a pre-determined number of hours.
If you're not, also, travelling (on the same flight), you'll need to book ahead at a kennel which will issue a receipt confirming the time the animals arrived and the time of discharge. You'll need to find out if the kennel will pick up the puppies for you - if not, you'll need to pre-book a limo' and confirm this after you've confirmed the airline has landed! You would book with west coast office of a well-known company (check Better Business Bureau) and tip the driver 25% of the charge. To be (semi-) sure the driver receives his tip, ask the person you book with to have the driver send a handwritten receipt for the amount - tell them it's to be a fully-paid business refund which you need to declare on your monthly expense report. Limousine drivers are more reliable than a taxi driver and the limo' company charges at a more reasonable rate for a fixed amount of time. Finding parking at an airport and checking in, perhaps, 3 - 4 hours before flight time, plus being responsible for the tickets and associated paperwork means this is a a lot of work. I believe you'll need to issue a permission letter for the limo' company driver to have possession of the animals - ask the airline.
You'll need health certificates from the veterinarian (duplicates) plus will need to tape a typed schedule in an easy-to-read type-face, 14pt., beginning with Day #1 and including every bit of information for example, name of Limo' company, driver's name, telephone number, approximate time of pick-up and delivery plus a copy of this in a zip-lock in each carry-case along with the original health certificates, etc. The duplicates will need to be put into a zip lock with a hole in a bottom corner & corresponding hole at the top for kitchen twine to be strung through and then tied to carry case.
Carry-cases must be an airline-approved brand and style appropriate for size and weight of pups. The water dishes, inside, will need to hold the most water possible (deeper rather than wider) and must be easy for crew to fill from the outside. They should be about 1-1/2 - 2 inches less than their height when standing (i.d.) but check dimensions with airlines. You don't want them to be able to fully stand as, if they're standing when the plane hits a down draft, other cargo may hit the crate hard enough to cause them to fall and a broken leg could be the result. It is best not to medicate them and, to "test them" for motion-sickness, take them on a 20-minute "joy-ride" - if they barf, they'll need dramamine (or similar). This reminds me that, in each crate, you'll need to put extra bedding in a giant-sized zip-lock in case one, or the other, gets sick - make a note of this and tape to top of cases. I don't know if it's possible to put two in a carry-case - perhaps if they weigh under a certain amount. Oh - and don't forget that they will be crossing the International Dateline so will need this typed in bright blue across the page before picking up with the remaining information.
If you're traveling with them - don't board the plane until you have seen the pups get put into cargo and ask for a confirmation call, or note, advising you they are on the plane.
Airlines will not fly animals in the summer unless you are bringing a tiny pet in the passenger cabin with you. There have been lawsuits because of animals dying in the cargo-hold so, if looking to ship to Hong Kong, you may have to wait until October - I've been in H.K. in September and it's, usually, Bloody Hot. The temps. at arrival airports are checked before boarding and you wouldn't want to leave the pups in Hawaii for a week.
Praise the Lord these days are behind me - my husband said I paid more attention to the pets than to him (think he was joking!).
