It is important to check with the air carrier, before your journey,
to ensure that you have the proper documents. When traveling internationally,
check with the airline and with the embassy to ensure that all requirements
and paperwork are in place before departure.
Some airlines will not accept animals for carriage in passenger cabins
as accompanied baggage, although some make an exception for service
animals.
Advance arrangements are mandatory for the carriage of animals on
all segments of the journey.
