| First time flyer needs advice..!! Maggie will be flying with us to from N.J. to Florida..(just under 3 hrs). I dont think I have a clue what I need to do to prepare or what expect.The airline has given me the proper measurements for the bag to put her in.She is not accustomed to being in bags for any legnth of time.I know I should take her for a nice walk and make sure she goes potty before flying,but other than that I am CLUELESS Any advice or experiences that you can share would be very helpful.

| To start, I would try getting her used to being in a carrier.

| Well like the other poster said, as soon you get a carrier put her in it along with a worn shirt or sock so that she can get used to it. I will have to do the same thing with Sasha as soon as I can find a carrier for her that's roomy AND meets the airline's dimensions (that's my problem). Fortunately for me, I will have an evening flight so I'm hoping she will just go to sleep. I think it would also be a good idea to get a good health certificate from your vet just in case yo u have to show proof. |
