The Pet Guardian’s Guide To The Most Pet Friendly Airlines. Plus Our Leaderboard Of The 10 Most Pet Friendly Airlines

By Pedro Okoro // Updated: February 22, 2022 13 Comments

With over five million pets and other live animals transported by air every year around the world, is your favorite airline on our list of the 10 most pet friendly airlines?

Most pet parents need to travel with their pets by air. With so many commercial airlines out there, what are the most pet friendly airlines?

In a moment, we will unpack the phrase “pet friendly”.

But first, pet travel is huge!

Over 2 million pets and other live animals are transported by air every year in the United States. That’s according to the U.S. Department of Transportation. And with an estimated 53% of travelers taking holidays with their pets, we can safely guesstimate that well over 5 million pets travel by air around the world every year. A humongous number, whichever way you look at it!

Although governments impose restrictions on transporting live animals, every airline has a responsibility to ensure the safety and well being of any animal they ship. Because of this, each airline has policies for the safety and well being of any animals they transport.

Now back to what we mean by “pet friendly” airlines.

Should you? Shouldn’t you?

In this day and age, should we even be sedating cats for travel? I bet you wouldn’t want to be sedated for any kind of travel, so why should your beloved cat?

But then, what if it’s actually in the best interests of the cat to be sedated?

As an animal rights campaigner, those are the issues at the forefront of my mind as I write this article.

Although the focus of this article is everything relating to sedating cats for travel, I’m tempted to ask, “apart from sedating for surgery, should we be sedating cats at all?” Are there any viable alternatives to sedation?
