Petmate Vari Kennels conform to IATA Airline requirements and carry a five year manufacturer's warranty.
Although this carrier is IATA Approved, individual Airlines have differing reqirements regarding the transport of pets and the carriers they will accept, we recommend you contact the Airline your pet is flying with to confirm that this carrier meets their requirements prior to making your purchase. Airlines may have slightly differing requirements, but as a general rule your pet must be able to stand up and turn around in the carrier. Failure to comply with individual Airline requirements could result in the Airline refusing to allow your pet to fly.
It's very important to order your pet carrier in plenty of time before the flight, as your pet will require time to become used to being in the carrier. We suggest that you keep the carrier at home and allow and encourage your pet to sleep, eat and drink in it. If your pet feels safe & secure within the carrier it should ensure that the journey is as stress-free as possible.
