Please bring with you the following info:
- Flight date,
- Which airline you are flying on,
- Whether the animal is flying in-cabin or cargo. Do not assume you can bring your animal with you on the plane. There are both in-cabin and in-cargo restrictions, and you need to contact your airline to make sure you can get your pet on the plane with you.
