Manifested cargo<\/li>\n<li>2. Excess Baggage<\/li>\n<li>3. In-cabin<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>1.PET TRAVELLLING as MANIFESTED CARGO<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>At Manoir Kanisha, we are cargo specialists.\u00a0\u00a0 We plan and make estimates accordingly.\u00a0\u00a0 When your best friend travels as\u00a0<strong>manifested cargo<\/strong>, the airline takes over responsibility for the pet during travel, not just for the container.<\/p>\n<p>Your pet will travel on an Air Waybill (AWB) and the airline may require the consignee at destination to acknowledge an \u2018<em>OK-to-Forward\u2019<\/em>\u00a0 before we can even load the animal on the plane at departure.\u00a0\u00a0 This ensures that no pet is stranded on arrival because nobody came to collect.\u00a0 We can make cargo bookings on your behalf provided we have a full name, address, telephone and email address for the consignee receiving your pet.<\/p>\n<p>We do realise that this is the most expensive means of transport, but it is the most secure, and several countries will ONLY allow entry as manifested cargo, notably GB, Australia, New Zealand, to name but a few.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>2. PET TRAVELLING as EXCESS BAGGAGE:<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>In this alternative called\u00a0<strong>excess baggage<\/strong>, the pet travels like any other excess suitcase.\u00a0 The airline will never take any responsibility for the pet, only for the container should it get lost, regardless of what is inside.\u00a0\u00a0 Not every airline will allow excess baggage, but if they do the charge is nominal, typically $50-$150 per kennel.\u00a0 It varies by airline, route, and the size of the container.\u00a0\u00a0<em>Only the owner can make this booking<\/em>\u00a0along with their own ticket.\u00a0 There is an upper limit to size and weight which varies by airline, as well as according to the route and destination.<\/p>\n<p>On departure the passenger only receives a baggage ticket or receipt, just as for any other suitcase.\u00a0\u00a0 The pet does not go down the baggage belt but will be taken directly by a handler as with any outsize item.\u00a0 The owner is wholly responsible for the animal, and it cannot travel in the passenger cabin on international flights.\u00a0\u00a0 This is why your best friend must be housed in a rigid container up to IATA standards for travel in the forward hold which is heated, ventilated, air conditioned and illuminated, exactly as for the First Class passengers above.<\/p>\n<p>The size of the container will depend on the breed and the dimensions of your pet.\u00a0\u00a0 At Manoir Kanisha, we cannot make this type of booking for you because we do not know the status of your ticket or what your animal may be \u201cin excess of\u201d.\u00a0 We can however provide the expected weight and dimensions that will be asked for by the passenger desk.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>3. PET TRAVELING as IN-CABIN BAGGAGE<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>In general\u00a0<strong>in-cabin transport<\/strong>\u00a0is only allowed in USA and Canada, subject to several restrictions as well as the policy of the airline.\u00a0 It is only very rarely allowed on any international flights.\u00a0 If allowed, it means that the container must fit under the seat (max 8 inches high) so this at best restricts such transport to very small pets such as rats, mice, geckos etc.\u00a0 The container must be large enough for the animal to sit stand and turn in its natural manner.\u00a0 As with Excess Baggage, the owner is responsible for making such a booking at the same time as their own ticket.\u00a0 The airline takes no responsibility whatsoever for the pet or container.<\/p>\n<p>There are several reasons why in-cabin movement is not allowed.\u00a0 The airline does not know if the pet will smell, make a noise, or provoke allergies with other passengers.\u00a0 You are not allowed to release the pet in flight and must consider how water is to be provided without spilling.<\/p>\n<p>The one exception to this would be a registered guide dog for a blind person.\u00a0 They are trained to operate quietly in a crowd.\u00a0 So-called \u2018support animals\u2019 are frequently fraudulent and thus seldom accepted by airlines unless the owner can provide internationally recognized certification for both dog and passenger.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>VETERINARY CERIFICATION<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Whichever method of transport is used, the veterinary preparations are exactly the same according to the country of destination.\u00a0 At Manoir Kanisha we can prepare all these veterinary steps and deliver the pet as required to Cargo (when travelling manifested) or to the passenger (when travelling as excess baggage).<\/p>\n<p>You may question why a veterinary visit is required even for a domestic flight.\u00a0\u00a0 The reason is simple: the airline has to know that your pet is\u00a0<em><strong>\u2018fit to fly\u2019<\/strong><\/em>.\u00a0\u00a0 The airline (and we) do not know your animal and responsible airlines will not accept your pet without this examination certificate.\u00a0\u00a0 For all international flights, the appropriate International Health Certificate is always required as well as a current rabies vaccination certificate.<\/p>\n<p>-=-=-=-=-=-<\/p>\n<h4><strong><em>It is important to verify if your animal is fit for transport.<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n<h4><strong><em>But, most important you should ask:<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n<h4><strong><em>\u201cIs this transport fit for my Best Friend?\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-135\" src=\"https:\/\/manoirkanisha.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/ipata-logo.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"360\" height=\"154\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UNDERSTANDING the DIFFERENCES between FLYING PETS as MANIFESTED CARGO, EXCESS BAGGAGE or\u00a0 IN-CABIN BAGGAGE It is important to understand the difference between these three possible methods of transporting pets by plane, namely: 1.
