Korean Air Lines
http://www.koreanair.com/local/na/eng/ld/btm/fq/gf/pets.jsp

What kinds of animal are allowed to fly with me?

Only dogs, cats, and household birds may be carried on Korean Air flights. Reptiles (including snakes and lizards) and rodents (such as rats, mice, ferrets, weasels, etc) cannot be carried as a pet for safe ty reasons. We do not accept American Pit Bull Terriers, Rottweilers, Dobermanns and will refuse any animal that is offensive or shows aggression. The passenger must complete a "Declaration of Indemnity" assuming all responsibilities for pet injuries, ill nesses, or death prior to the flight. What are the requirements to fly with my dog on the same flight? Pets can travel on the same flight with pasengers in two different ways: 1. In the cabin with the passenger: A. The pet must remain in the kennel, unde r the seat during the flight; pet must be able to move freely in the kennel.B. The total weight of the pet and the kennel must not exceed 11 lbs.C. The dimension (width plus, length plus, height added together) of the kennel must not exceed 45 inches.D. P ets must be at least 8 weeks old. 2. In the cargo compartment (Animal In Hold): A. The pet travels on the same flight as you do in a temperature controlled and ventilated baggage compartment. B. The total weight of the pet and the kennel must not exceed 70 lbs. C. The dimension of the kennel must not exceed 97 inches. 3. Authorization must be obtained in order to travel. Authorization must be requested at least 7 days prior to departure. Some airports in Japan may require more time (14 days) in advance for authroization. 4. Currently, Hong Kong United Kingdom, Australia, Indonesia and New Zealand we cannot send pets; must have an airway bill, this means pet must be sent on a cargo flight and not on the passenger flight. 5. Only one pet per kennel is allowed per passenger. However, small size two pets of the same kind may be allowed in one cage, if between 8 weeks and 6 months old. 6. Pets must be healthy, harmless, clean, odorless, not pregnant, and not tranquilized. 7. Only limited number of pets is allowed in the cabin or in the cargo compartment per flight depending on the type of aircraft. 8. Due to security reasons, certain kind of dogs may not be allowed. (i.e. American Pit Bull Terriers, Rottweilers, Dobermanns, etc.) 9. The kennel must be sturdy with security lock, properly ventilated and large enough. • Must constructed out of rigid plastic, wood, metal or material of comparable strength with solid roofs. • Must have a leak-proof bottom and absorbent bedding either shredded paper or towels to prevent loss of food, water or waste matter. • Must be equipped with security lock to prevent escape but should allow personnel to open it in case of emergency. • Must provide ventilation. • Must provide freedom of movement and comfort for the animal. (large enough to allow the pet to stand, turn around, and lie down comfortably) What documents are required to import pets? All destinations require a health certificate and rabies vaccination certificate. Some destinations may require other documents and proper documents on importing pets. What is the charge for my dog, cat, or bird to fly with me? Whether your pet is traveling in the cabin or cargo compartment, you will be charged (according to your pet and carrier weight) two times the excess baggage charge specified for your flight per direction, regardless of your free baggage allowance.

During periods of very hot or very cold weather the airline may require an ACCLIMATION CERTIFICATE. You can order this form online in our store. http://www.pettravelstore.com/store-pet-immigration-forms1.html
