Any suggestions about the above? We are frantic trying to find a shipper who will do this. Major airlines are out and shippers we asked changed their mind without explanation.

 

Thanks,

PT

If they're really "small dogs" why not get them each a little soft sided pet tote and take them on the plane with you?

I think that's the way to go. I can't imagine a moving company wanting to take on the liability of transporting pets.

Delta Pet Policy : Flying with Dogs, Cats & More : Delta Air Lines

Pets − Travel information − American Airlines (aa.com)

Does Spirit Airlines allow pets onboard? · Spirit Support 

Shipping Company | Air Freight | Cargo Shipping | Amerijet

Spirit allows carrier+pet up to 40 lbs for in cabin transport.

AA allows carrier+pet of up to 20 lbs and they will weigh and check.

Delta is more about the size of the carrier.

Haven't checked in the past couple of months on status of in-hold transport of live animals. But it's probably too hot for all but Amerijet.

Amerijet flies pets in an area behind their pilots last I checked - so no heat restrictions.

You should buy for them a seat in plane or call the air company and ask them about possibilities.
