What happens to a pet when they are in an airplane?

They end up in the same place as you.

Bah, Uncle Tom's answer is much funnier.

It depends. If you are just shipping them or checking them in as luggage. It typically costs around 100 bucks if you are checking them in. they will ask u all these questions like hen is the last time you fed them and so on. They might ask for a health certificate. The have to be in a kennel that does not collapse and the kennel should be big enough for them to stand, sleep and move around. They will put lots of stickers on the kennel that say live animal. Then you will walk over to tsa for them to manually search the kennel. At this time u will remove the animal from the kennel. After that is done you can put the pet back in and someone will manually come and take the kennel thru security and to the tarmac. then they will go in the front cargo pit of the airplane. they will be loaded on close to last and will be the first one off the plane. Its all pressurized so you dont have to worry about a thing. same temp and everything.

Their ears pop and they feel the same things we do only a little more intensified. If you can fly your pet in the passenger area with you it is better than flying them as cargo. The pet areas on most aircraft are not adequately climate controlled so your pet may not have a comfortable flight or may get too hot or cold. Remember that they hear, smell and see better than we do and when they are frightened it is much more intense than when we are frightened. If you can have a carry on, find a carry on pet case that will fit beneath the seat. You should never put your pet in the overhead compartment as there is no air flow up there and they can die from suffocation. I have an Outward Hound Pet back pack for my chihuahua and it works great for flying as well as carrying him about while I am on vacation or traveling with work. Keeps my hands free. Your pet will need food and water every few hours and of course potty breaks are important. If you have stops between flights, you might wish to have a few piddle pads with you to let your pet relieve itself (in the loo or outdoors if you can find some grass at the airport -good luck with that one.) I take my dog into the stall with me, place his pad on the floor then let him go, but he has been traveling for years and it took some time to get him used to going on the pads without all of the public distractions. Always clean up after your pet and request that people not bother your pet while he/she is relieving itself. Travel safe. Limit food to dry food only before a flight and water only every few hours. This can help prevent accidents.

If they are in the passenger cabin or if they are in the cargo area they have the same pressurized and temperature controlled environment that you are traveling in. Airline employees are pet owners too and take care to handle carefully. Check with your vet before you fly. Airlines have temperature restrictions for heat and cold, so check with your airline for pet embargoes. When it is forecast to be over or under a certain temp anywhere along the route the airlines may refuse to accept the pet. The airlines follow USDA rules for handling.

Typically they are raped. Either by other pets or by the baggage crew. Sometimes the baggers will hold down the pet so that other animals can take turns.

They are checked like baggage and put in a special hold (heated) under the plane with the luggage. The airline can give you specific details.

they are put in with the baggage under the plane. I know not to humane but they will be fine if you put a blanket in their kennel and any other comfy things they like.

Depends on teh pet sometimes you can get authoriozation to bring then onboard, others must be put in the belly of the plane, and soem can't travel at all.

it Depends what type of pet you are trying to transport if it is a small animal that is not potentially dangerous then they will store it in the overhead compartment.

If it is a bigger animal you are trying to transport they will be put in a crate or some sort of cage that they cannot get out of and they will be stored with the cargo down beneath the seating area and then they will hand carry them out of the cargo hold, then find the owners and give the animal to them.
