The Ultimate Guide to Chartered Air Travel with Pets


Booking chartered air travel with pets is a straightforward process, especially when working with experienced providers:

Step 1: Find a Pet-Friendly Charter Service

Not all private jet operators allow animals onboard, so look for one that explicitly welcomes pets. Ask about:

  • Pet policies
  • Cabin configurations
  • In-flight amenities for animals

Step 2: Provide Pet Details

Give the charter company your pet’s breed, size, weight, and any medical concerns. This helps match you with the right aircraft and onboard accommodations.

Step 3: Arrange Ground Transportation

Coordinate pet-friendly car services to and from the airport. Many luxury jet operators include this in their concierge offerings.

Step 4: Confirm Cabin Setup

If your pet has special requirements—such as traveling in a crate, or needing space to lay on a blanket—inform the crew ahead of time so they can make adjustments.
