You would go to your vet no sooner than 1 week before you plan to travel and ask for a health certificate for flying. They may give them a water differential and state the dog is in good enough health to fly. Because you are traveling over state lines, you will need a rabies if over 6 months in age. Also, you can check the airlines you fly with and see what dimensions are needed on the pet carrier, that way they can fly in cabin with you and not in the cargo hold. I fly US Airways. I hope this helps! -- em :)

I think it is too hot at 100+ degrees here and it is hot even in the morning. I checked into it and it could be up to a 12 hr flight and that is just too much for a little puppy. He will be 12 wks in 3 days, but he is still too small for that kind of stress. I told her that if she was really wanting him she could fly down and they would allow her to fly him back in the cabin with her, but I don't think that she will go for that. Oh well my baby's health is the most important thing. www.cnmpuppies. mysite.com "Whether or not it is clear to you, the world is unfolding as it should." -Desiderata Christy Sylvest [EMAIL PROTECTED] com To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ups.com From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] com Date: Sun, 20 Jul 2008 14:22:57 -0500 Subject: Re: [Chihuahuas] Shipping to alaska Well with the Pet Safe program Continental offers the trolleys for lack of a better description are air conditioned to transport to and from the airplane but I am unsure what Alaska Air has in place.

I have never shipped before and would like some advise from those of you who have shipped a good distance. What airline is best? I have heard Delta but not sure...How much would you charge if I have to drive 1 hr to the airport and 1hr back? I would be shipping from Texas so it would have to be a very early flight.
