When it comes to air travel, your pet’s safety and comfort is a top priority. The right crate is more than just a container—it’s your pet’s secure and cozy haven during the journey. At AirPets International, we know that every pet is unique, and selecting the proper crate size and type is essential for a stress-free trip. Whether it’s a short domestic flight or a long international journey, we’re here to guide you in choosing a crate that meets all airline regulations and provides your pet with the utmost comfort and security.
For detailed guidance, check out our crate training video and our step-by-step guide on measuring your pet for a crate.
We offer a full range of fiberglass crates with metal screws that meet all of International Air Transport Association's (IATA) Live Animal Regulations (LAR). These crates are leak proof, have spacers all around the crate to ensure ventilation is not restricted, and have a single door. We only offer crate brands and options that we have verified all flight requirements are met, meaning you don't have to worry about whether you purchased the correct size or type of crate.
Customized wooden crates are typically required if your dog is extra large, like a great dane or mastiff, a restricted breed like a dogo Argentina, or a powerful chewer like a pit bull. In these cases, we will get custom measurements and then have a crate built that meets Live Animal Regulations but keeps your pet comfortable and safe during their flight. In these instances, we will assess your pet's height, length, weight, and width to ensure the crate is tailor-made for them.
At AirPets, we understand both safety and cost are important to pet owners. For this reason, we are happy to provide guidance on crate selections for those individuals who prefer to price compare across multiple platforms. Keep in mind that AirPets does not assume responsibility for any crates not purchased directly from us, and purchasing a crate that is sized incorrectly or doesn't meet regulations may result in your pet being rejected at the airport.
