Tips, guides, and stories to make traveling with your furry companions easier and safer.


Every year, over 4 million pets travel by air globally. Every year, thousands of those journeys go wrong — not because of bad weather or flight delays, but because the owner chose the wrong airline for their specific pet, route, or destination. The question "which airline is best for travelling with a pet?" does not have one answer. It has several — depending on where you are going, what size your pet is, what breed they are, and what level of service you need. This guide ranks the world's mo

There is a collar that can tell you your dog is anxious before you notice the signs yourself. There is a GPS tracker that works in 175 countries without changing a SIM card. There is a feeder that recognises your individual pet and adjusts their portion size automatically while you are 30,000 feet in the air. This is not science fiction. This is the pet technology landscape of 2026. And for international travellers who bring their pets, some of it is genuinely, practically useful. But not all

1 in 5 Americans now has an Emotional Support Animal. Most of them are travelling under assumptions that have not been true since 2021. The rules around ESAs and air travel changed dramatically in December 2020, when the US Department of Transportation revised its Air Carrier Access Act regulations. What was once a protected right - flying with your ESA for free in the cabin - is now essentially gone on US airlines. And internationally, the picture is even more complex. This guide covers exac

A study published this week by Texas A&M University College of Veterinary Medicine found something that will stop most dog owners mid-scroll. More than 84% of dogs show signs of fear or anxiety. Not occasionally. Not in extreme situations. Regularly. "These are behaviors most owners have seen at some point," said researchers. The study analysed behaviour data from tens of thousands of pets across the United States and found that anxiety in dogs is far more common than previously understood. For

You booked the flights. You sorted the kennel. You even got your dog used to their carrier. Then you called the airline. And they told you - sorry, your pet cannot fly this summer. This is happening to thousands of pet owners right now. And most of them had no idea it was coming. Summer 2026 has brought significant changes to how major airlines handle pet travel - particularly cargo and checked baggage options. If you are planning to travel with your pet between June and September, here is exact

Every year, dogs are turned away at airport check-in for one reason: the wrong crate. Not the wrong documents. Not the wrong vaccinations. The wrong crate. The International Air Transport Association (IATA) sets the global standard for how dogs travel by air - and over 95% of commercial airlines operating today follow the Live Animals Regulations (LAR) of IATA. If your dog's crate doesn't meet these standards, your dog doesn't fly. It's that simple.

Private jet pet travel has grown 42% year-on-year in 2026. Entire airlines have launched dedicated to pets flying in-cabin. This guide covers everything you need to know about flying with a pet on a private jet in 2026 - from costs and operators to the documentation that most people overlook until it is too late.

It is no longer a fringe sentiment. According to data published in April 2026, 69% of Millennials and Gen Z now view their pets as family members. More than four in five Millennials in the US consider their pets their children. Pet insurance now covers over 7 million animals in the United States alone. The "humanisation of pets" - the shift in how humans perceive, care for, and spend money on their animals - is no longer a trend. It is a permanent structural change in consumer behaviour, family
