according to the relevant regulations of civil aviation, passengers can take their pets to travel at random, but they must make a reservation or purchase a ticket, provide the animal quarantine certificate issued by the health and quarantine department at or above the county level, and go to the airport freight department in advance to handle the random check-in procedures for pets after the carrier agrees. Pets should be packed in iron containers carried by passengers themselves, and pet excrement should not be leaked to keep the freight compartment clean. Pets, containers and food shall be delivered as excess baggage. All checked pets will be placed in the aerobic cabin of the flight according to the regulations to ensure the safety of pets.
Tools/raw materials
1. A process of pet consignment:
1. Get a quarantine certificate: go to the quarantine bureau and many pet shops can help you with it, and the cost is not much different;
2, buy an air box: pet shops generally have special air boxes for pets, ranging from tens to hundreds; I've also seen pets checked in plastic glove boxes/turnover boxes, and it's estimated that it depends on whether the airport freight is allowed; Drinking fountains, diapers, etc. should be prepared in the box.
3, pet suitcase. There are many sizes, you should ask the size required by the airline.
4, travel water bottle, hanging in the suitcase. Pets will only come out when they lick the water pipe with their tongues.
5. Pet ID card. If you can't buy it, you can make it yourself. It shall be marked in both Chinese and foreign languages.
6. Check in: Go to the airport three hours in advance to check in the pets, and consult the ground service personnel at the airport for the specific location;
7. Cost: 1.5%/kg of the full fare. For example, if the full fare is 1,111 yuan and the pet is 11 kg, then the freight is 1,111× 1.5% x11 = 1.51 yuan.
8. Pick up the goods: pick up the goods at the airport cargo office at least one hour after arrival in Hong Kong, and the cargo office may also charge a handling fee from 5 yuan.
2. Preparation before consignment:
1. Before booking, it is best to confirm whether pets are allowed on the flight, that is, whether there is a live animal cargo compartment, which is generally available;
2. Call the freight department of the airline one day in advance to book the cabin. Please call the airport or the Yellow Pages.
3. If your pet suffers from carsickness or plane sickness, you need to consult a doctor in advance and prepare the corresponding medicine;
4, prepare a small amount of food in the air box, and put some pets' favorite toys in the box to reduce the pet's anxiety;
5. Even pets who don't get carsick are advised to fast at least 3 hours before boarding the plane and urinate before boarding the plane, so as to reduce the stomach discomfort and burden when traveling at high altitude;
6. If your pet has never used a drinking fountain, train it to use it.
Precautions
Airport consignment procedures Note: 1, arrive at the airport cargo office three hours in advance. The airport freight department is in the innermost part of the airport. Ask around carefully and you will know that there is a sign that says "freight department". 4. If international transportation is involved, it is also necessary to have the necessary documents for leaving and entering the relevant countries. Consignment fee: charged according to the excess baggage (excluding the free baggage allowance), and 1.5% of the economy class fare per kilogram. All checked pets will be placed in the aerobic cabin of the flight according to the regulations to ensure the safety of pets.
2. Before filling out the form, put the dog in a cage, just iron, and there should be a board under it to prevent excrement from polluting the cabin. After putting it away, take the cage and weigh it, and then go back to the room where the form is filled out to pay according to the weight. I'll give you a bill of lading after paying the money, and that's all. The dog will be taken away, and you can go to the waiting room to prepare for boarding.
3. As pets can only be packed in the cargo hold as checked baggage, passengers must go through the check-in formalities at the freight department 71 minutes in advance. Pets must have health certificate, vaccination certificate and animal quarantine certificate provided by epidemic prevention department.
