Have you traveled by air with your pets? How well did it work out?
I would be interested in knowing your experiences with air travel and pets. I've never really thought much about this issue, because my wife, Shirley, and I do very little travel -- and very little of that by air. In fact, we've taken only one round-trip flight in the last 10 years, and we left our cat, Tigra, at home for our adult children to take care of.
I thought about air travel with pets because I just saw an Internet story saying that Canadian officials have just reinstated a policy of allowing pets to travel on Air Canada. After looking around several search results for "pets air travel," I concluded that traveling by air with your pet(s) certainly can be done -- but it isn't easy and it's complicated by no standard guidelines for air carriers.
So, leave a comment and tell us about your experiences traveling with your pets. Was it good or bad? What would you like to see changed? Tell us, please.
