Preparation for Your Private Flight with a Pet
After booking your private plane for your flight with your pet, here are a few friendly suggestions to help ensure a smooth day:
- Reconfirm your flight by requesting a final charter itinerary. We maintain organized and up-to-date schedules, but it’s always best to double-check.
- On the day of your flight, take your pet for a walk or play to help them relax and burn off energy.
- If traveling internationally, provide all required documentation for your pet at least 72 hours before departure. Visit your vet for health certificates and vaccination reports.
- Ensure current pet tags are on your pet’s collar. We suggest not allowing your pet to eat for up to four hours prior to departure. Bring housebreaking pads and provide small amounts of water. Take your pet for a walk before boarding.

Using a Pet Carrier or Crate
- Verify with your air charter advisor that the carrier size is acceptable.
- Ensure the carrier provides enough room for your pet to move comfortably.
- Confirm the door is secure and remains closed during flight.
- The carrier should be ventilated properly and have a waterproof bottom.
