Pet safety and security while in transit is most important to us, so no compromise on crates.
Traveling with your pet can be a pretty exhausting affair with even the smallest of details needing a great deal of attention.
If you are planning a long-distance journey by air along with your pet or simply relocating the pet within the country or internationally, it is most likely that your pet will be shipped either as cargo or as excess cabin baggage in case they are accompanying you.
Depending upon the size of your pet and airline regulations, you can decide whether to carry your pet along with you as excess cabin baggage or check it in as cargo.
Among the very many things that are required to be taken care of for a pet’s safe journey, is a secure IATA (International Air Transport Association) specified crate to make their flight comfortable and smooth. Airlines for both domestic and international travel, require IATA-approved crates for pets that are specifically designed keeping in mind their safety and comfort.
These crates made in fiberglass, come in semi and small sizes starting from 21 inches in length and range up to giant-sized crates of 48 inches length, to accommodate both small and large breeds of pets.
IATA has specified certain guidelines for crates permitted in airlines for pet travel.
Specially fabricated out of fibreglass, these crates remain stable, strong and sturdy on the ground as well as during landing and taking off of the flights.
There are wired steel windows for proper ventilation and two food bowls can be installed in the cage for feeding pets.
Also, equipped with detachable wheels, these crates make transportation of the pet easier.
Depending upon the size and weight of the pet, appropriate crates (also termed as kennels) are recommended. A comfortable crate gives enough space for the pet to turn around, sit, stand and lie in a natural position. Cats are pretty much the same size and biologically of smaller built, hence a similar-sized crate can be used for them.
However, there is a lot of variation when it comes to sizing and measuring pet dogs. Hence, it is mandatory to get a proper-sized crate for your pet dog as airlines make it mandatory to have additional room for the pet within the kennel.
The key is to measure your pet accurately and select the crate size based on that.
Pet measurement includes the following specifications:
Based on these dimensions and certain calculations, an appropriate kennel is finalized for the pet’s flight. Make sure to add those extra 4 inches to the calculated height of the pet so that there is enough headspace and the pet is not cramped in the cage.
Keeping in mind the technicalities while selecting the crate, it is always advisable for the pet parents to get in touch with a Pet Relocation company. Sales and Operations experts at Carry My Pet understand your requirements and will provide the appropriate cage for your furry baby.

The IATA or International Air Transport Association approved pet crates are containers which are designed specifically for your pet’s comfort and safety while flying, and approved by the IATA for the same.
Crates which are with the dimensions of 18.6 X 8.5 X 13.5 inches can fit under an airplane seat.
Your pet crate has to meet a few requirements to be IATA approved: plastic/metal/wood constructions, 2-3 door fasteners on the container, metal nuts and bolts only, no sharp surfaces inside the container, ventilation, leak-proof floor, solid roof, handles, absorbent bedding, 2 accessible bowls, and live animal stickers with name of pet.
Standard sizes range from Small, Intermediate-B, Medium Intermediate-B, Intermediate-A, Large, Extra Large, Medium Extra Large, and Giant.
A container which is within the prescribed size requirements and made of a durable material such as plastic, fiberglass, metal, or wood with proper ventilation counts as a pet carrier. Soft carriers are available, but their utility is limited as airlines require your pet to travel in an IATA approved fiber crate.
