For pet owners, flying commercial with a dog or cat is one of travel’s great frustrations — cargo restrictions, weight limits, breed bans, and the anxiety of being separated from your animal. Private jet charter eliminates every one of those problems. On a BDP Airways charter, your pet travels in the cabin with you, not in cargo, with no weight restrictions and no stress.
How Pet Travel Works on Private Charters
- Cabin access: Your pets sit with you in the cabin throughout the flight
- No weight limits: A 120-lb Great Dane is as welcome as a 5-lb Chihuahua
- No breed restrictions: Breeds banned from commercial flights (brachycephalic breeds, pit bulls) fly freely on private charters
- No crate requirement: Pets can roam the cabin freely or travel in a preferred carrier
- Pet-specific catering: Water bowls, treats, and even gourmet pet meals can be arranged
What to Bring for Your Pet
- Health certificate from a veterinarian (required for most interstate travel and all international travel)
- Vaccination records (rabies vaccination required for most destinations)
- Familiar bedding or blanket
- Favorite toys and treats
- Any medications or supplements
International Pet Travel by Private Jet
International travel with pets by private jet is significantly more manageable than commercial alternatives, but still requires documentation and preparation. Requirements vary by country — the UK, EU, and Australia have specific pet import requirements. BDP Airways will advise on specific requirements for your destination and can recommend veterinary services experienced in international travel documentation.
