INTERNATIONAL TRAVEL
If you are traveling to another country, the airline will want to see
that you have the proper documents to enter that country with your
pet. Most countries have their own version of a veterinary
certificate sometimes called a Zoo Sanitary Certificate. In addition
some countries require an import permit. These forms and instructions are available
here:

HOT AND COLD WEATHER RESTRICTIONS
When runway temperatures are above 84 degrees at the departure
airport, the airline may refuse to board the pet in the cargo
(checked baggage) section of the aircraft. When the weather is very
cold with a runway temperature below 45 degrees at the time of
departure the airline may require what is called an acclimation
certificate that is available here:

MORE TIPS FOR PET AIR TRAVEL
1. Never give your pet a medical (prescription) sedative. If you
want your pet to be more relaxed, then give it a natural relaxing
agent such as
HAPPY TRAVELER
2. Always purchase your pet carrier well in advance of your trip so
that the pet can get used to it.
3. Be sure to tell the airline you will be flying with a pet as they
impose restrictions on the number of pets on a specific flight.
4. Even though air travel can be stressful for your pet both you and
your pet, you will be happier if the pet gets to go with you on your
trip.
