Re: Dogs and Ryanaire
Well it used to happen. I remember when I was in my early teens I was asked to escort a Siamese cat across the Atlantic for some friends. Can't remember why the scenario arose now, but the cat went in its carrier alongside me. It did yowl a bit at first, but soon settled down.Re: Dogs and Ryanaire
I haven't flown for many years but if I were to for some reason Callie would be fine sitting beside me. Rather he would probably curl on the seat and sleep the whole time. I wouldn't worry about piddle pads, the average big dog can hold it for several hours. I would be afraid to have any animal in the cargo hold.Re: Dogs and Ryanaire
Re: Dogs and Ryanaire
I would be happy to have my little dog with me on a plane, she is better behaved than most kids for one thing and I am presuming they mean smaller breeds and cats that can be crated. German, Belgium and other European country airlines have had this system for a long time, many people here fly back and forth with their pets with them. When we moved to Kenya my two Pomeranians had to travel in the hold, that worried me because they are not checked on at all during the flight, likewise when we moved from there to Spain they had to travel in the hold. According to British Airways only puppies can travel together in the same crate, all adult dogs must be in separate crates and British Airways do not have a good reputation transporting pets. Mine were booked from Kenya with British Airways but they gave me so much hassle and stress we cancelled and they came to Spain with Lufthansa. Mombasa to Nairobi, Nairobi to Frankfurt, Frankfurt to Barcelona and Barcelona to Alicante, a long journey for two little dogs. However they were in excellent condition when they arrived, they had been groomed and cared for and the man from Lufthansa telephoned us to check they had arrived safely and were in good condition.Re: Dogs and Ryanaire

Bugger this for a game of soldiers.Re: Dogs and Ryanaire
I do agree with that statement in a way cranberry. Some owners and their dogs are a pain in the backside, and could make your journey a nightmare.
