Golden Retriever (detailed introduction)

       When it is unavoidable, we may need to let the dog take a plane. The most concerning question for owners is, how much does air transport for dogs cost? Generally, domestic air transport for dogs under 5kg costs about 300 yuan, and fees are calculated separately for weights over 5kg. However, prices vary among different companies. To avoid overspending, owners must inquire about detailed charging standards before air shipping dogs.

       After confirming the price, you need to prepare a transport crate for the dog. The crate is best a sturdy and durable pet-specialized airline crate to ensure the safety of dog air transport. Also, it’s best not to feed the dog before the flight, but giving them some water is okay. Some dogs might get nervous before air transport. If owners worry the dog can’t stay calm, a sedative can be given under the vet’s permission.

       Regarding dog air transport, owners should also pay attention to the following issues:

       1. Be sure to bring the vaccination certificate; otherwise, the dog won’t be allowed to board.

       2. Purchase insurance. If no insurance is purchased, the company responsible for air transport will only compensate based on the dog’s weight in case of any accidents.

       3. Arrive at the airport early to handle procedures.

       4. Avoid choosing connecting flights or flights in bad weather, as this greatly increases the possibility of the dog being sent to the wrong place.
