Happy Tails Travel, Inc. FAQ

Does your $350.00 fee include the price of an airline ticket for my pet?

No. Our fee includes assisting you with all the details of the airline flight planning: securing a proper flight, written detailed instructions in preparing the pet for travel, documents required, logistics, and so on.

I don't know how airlines base their pricing for pets. Can you give me an idea?

Yes. In general, pet airline tickets are based on the following three factors when flying unaccompanied: weight of the pet in its carrier, dimensions of the carrier, and destination. In other words, cats cost less than Great Danes!

Does your fee include pickup and delivery of my pet to and from the airport?

No. Not every pet requires pick up and delivery, so this is not included in our price. We are happy to provide this service, priced on a case by case basis.

Once we send in the Pet Travel Form, is there an obligation or cost?
