Rodents in cabin?

Hello all.

We aren't quite at that point yet, but here's my question regarding my travel to the US:

I'm gonna take my pet rabbit with me, and since I would hate for him to travel in cargo hold, I'm trying to find airlines that will allow him to be with me in the cabin during the flight. Nowadays it's quite easy to do this with a cat or small dog, but I've found it to be almost impossible with a rodent. (why that is, I have not the slightest idea... :unsure: )

So, if anyone of you was successful having a rabbit or similar pet in the cabin as handluggage on your flight to the US, which airline did you use? The only one i found that might allow it is Continental.

Any input will be highly appreciated!

The world around you gets hazy and the only thing you focus on is you and that person. And for that one moment you've been given this amazing gift and you want to laugh and you want to cry at the same time because you're so lucky you've found it and so scared that it will go away.

Just put it in a cat carrier, tell them it is a cat. I doubt they will look to verify.

PEOPLE: READ THE APPLICATION FORM INSTRUCTIONS!!!! They have a lot of good information in them! Most of the questions I see on VJ are clearly addressed by the form instructions. Give them a read!! If you are unable to understand the form instructions, I highly recommend hiring someone who does to help you with the process. Our process, from K-1 to Citizenship and U.S. Passport is completed. Good luck with your process.

Try Delta. They seem pretty "up for anything". LOL

:lol:

Yeah, they allow it on flights within the US, on the website it doesnt say anything about international flights. I'll check on that, thanks! :thumbs:

akdiver, that would be a good idea, but I'll have to take him out of the carrier during the security check cause of the x-raying, so people might notice it's not a cat...

So? I dont they will go ask Delta if you're allowed to do it.

Besides, the TSA people are so dumb, they might even think it is a dog.

Cheers!

Actually, with cabin pets they take them away from you and they are inspected in a different part of the terminal, where a vet is present. The bags are labelled with what is inside it too.

If it says "cat" and it is in fact a rabbit, I really don't think that'll pass by unnoticed I'm afraid... :lol:

Hehe yeah. Will say "rabbit" in his papers as well, of course i guess nobody will actually bother looking at those. :no:

So change the label to read "rabbit"

You guys give up way too easily.

Good point: Nephilim could easily say that this "cat" has a rare recessive genetic condition--which should stop any of the few half-wits (as opposed to the far larger number of quarter-wit or no-wit) at TSA.

Well he's a long haired rabbit, if i let his hair grow out long enough all they'll see will b a big ball of fur, will be very hard for them to tell what it really is :P

Hi,

Some airlines will allow pets to travel in a carrier, if you buy him a seat-I am not joking. I met a woman on a KLM flight traveling from Amsterdam to NY, with her darling little Pug.

I know KLM will allow this...but I think you will need clearance from a veterinarian-ask them what paperwork they require. I don't think you will have any problems...

: )

Good Luck !
