¿What do I need to travel with my pet?
Prepare your pet for travel. Know the documentation and health requirements for a safe trip. Travel with your furry companion without worries!
- Passengers traveling with a pet must present at the airport counter: Rabies vaccination card, health certificate, animal health form and receipt of payment.
- The health certificate must be issued by a licensed veterinarian within 30 days prior to transport.
- Skyhigh Aviation Services is limited to transporting brachiocephalic (flat-nosed) breeds. These breeds have narrow airways due to their anatomy, which causes breathing difficulties.
- Note: Every pet transported implies a charge of US$100.00 + taxes. You can book this service through any of our electronic channels, commercial offices and airports.
Important: The use of pet tranquilizers is not recommended.
