Take Air Canada as an example. If the total weight of small dogs including boxes is about 15kg, it will be 245 Canadian dollars. The latest regulation of Air Canada is that dogs with cages less than 20LB can be brought directly into the cabin at a price of 100 Canadian dollars.

Precautions before and after flight

Because there are dogs, we should go to the airport for re-inspection earlier than usual, and go to the exit inspection room of the airport to check the pet identity and quarantine certificate. Confirm with the airport staff that the flight is ready for pets; When waiting in the airport lobby, please ask the flight attendant to remind the captain that there are pets around him, and pay more attention to the temperature setting and cabin pressure adjustment of the luggage compartment.

If you are not sure whether the cabin pressure and temperature adjustment has been started before the plane takes off, don't give the pet to the airport staff too early to avoid entering the cabin and being exposed to sunlight and high temperature. After handing over the dog to the airport staff, it is best to see the pet safely delivered to the luggage compartment.

Generally, pets get off the plane earlier than people and are placed near the office, next to the baggage conveyor belt. Next, as long as the above documents are submitted to the customs staff for verification, and the CFIA inspection fee (about 30 Canadian dollars) is paid, pets do not need to be isolated or injected after entering Canada, and there is a special place behind the baggage claim area where pets can be picked up (the icon is easy to see), especially if they are carried with them.

Number of pets that can be brought into Canada:

What should I do if I take more pets abroad? Only the whole family can take one. Or entrust a company with the right to import and export animals to transport goods. For specific questions about pet entry and exit and the designation of pet hospitals, you can call the local entry-exit inspection and quarantine bureau.
