Airline Approved Pet Carriers. (Pet Travel Crates) We now have the full range (all 8 sizes) and great prices on the whole range. Save even more and save on freight with multi-carrier packs.

This Airline Approved Carrier is designed to meet the standards of IATA (International Air Transport Association) for transporting live animals and has international airline approval (see disclaimer below). These crates have been extensively evaluated and approval has been obtained by the manufacturer for use on Australia’s National Carrier-Qantas. Cages are made from quality durable 3 mm injected moulded plastic. This makes cleaning of the carrier easier, removes quarantine concerns that arise from wood cages when used for international travel, minimises disease transfer from cages not properly cleaned, reduces overall weight and is considered durable enough for reuse. Cages come in two halves, making long-term storage easier. Metal screws and nuts are used to join top and bottom halves. Plastic screws can break and come apart. Many airlines and transport companies will not accept cages with plastics clips or screws.

Main Features:

• New Design, preferred by more airlines than the older style carriers.
• Grill door is of high quality and strength.
• Easy to open. Simply squeeze 2 levers together.
• Lightweight and easy to carry.
• Meets stringent IATA regulations* 
• Made in Australia.
• Each carrier includes: 1 x funnel, 1 feed/water cup, bolts and nuts to secure the 2 halves of the carrier together.
• All sizes (excluding the PP60N, PP90 & PP100) include a removable raised floor to keep your pet above and away from any urine spills.

* See disclaimer below.

Notes, Hints & Tips:

• The length of your pet (L) must be taken from the tip of the nose to the end of the tail. The height of your pet (H) is from the top of the head to the ground. If your pet has ears that are erect (Eg German Shepherd), you need to measure from the tips of ears to ground (especially when entering the UK). Both measurements must be taken when your pet is standing erect.
• Add 5 cm to both measurement (L) and (H) and that is the length and height your pet's travel crate needs to be.

Size Guide: (Approximate figures only)

IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: (PLEASE READ ALL POINTS IN RED BELOW BEFORE ORDERING)

• For PP80, PP90 & PP100 sizes please check with your airline to be sure that these crates will fit through the planes cargo door. Ask them for the dimensions of their cargo door & compare it to the dimensions of this crate to check that it fits.
• The PP70 and PP80 may be grey in colour OR blue and white. Scroll all photos to see grey colour. We have no control over what colour we are sent from the supplier and will send whatever colour we have in stock.
• The PP90 and PP100 are Orange & Blue in Colour
• The PP60N, PP90 and PP100 do NOT include a raised floor like the other sizes. 
• All carrier measurements on this page are just estimates.
• These carriers are not guaranteed to meet the requirements of every airline as these regulations can change over time and some airlines may have their own specific requirements.
• There are no returns or refunds on this item . Please choose carefully. We may allow a change of size but only at our discretion.

Frequently Asked Questions?

Q. Just wondering if these pet crates/carriers have metal fasteners rather than plastic?

A. Each fastener includes a bolt with a metal thread and a hard plastic head. Each bolt also comes with a hard plastic nut. See additional image photos to see for yourself.

Q. Will this PP-50 (extra large) carrier be big enough for a labrador?

A. It's best to measure your dog, both the length (nose to backside) and height (floor to top of head) and then compare them with the internal length and height measurements listed in the "more info" tab. Ideally, you should have about 5 cm space at each end of the carrier and the dog should be able to stand upright without touching the top of the carrier. However, for larger dogs, it can often be very difficult and very expensive to find carriers this big. So it might be wise to settle for a carrier that the dog can only crouch in but NOT stand upright in. If you do go for such a carrier be sure to get a carrier that is at least up to the shoulder height (or higher) of your dog when inside.

Description

Additional information.

• Reviews (0)

The Airline Approved Carrier is modified to meet the standards of IATA (International Air Transport Association) for transporting live animals and have international airline approval. These crates have been extensively evaluated, the cages are made from quality durable 3 mm injected molded plastic. This makes cleaning of the cage easier, removes quarantine concerns that arise from wood cages when used for international travel, minimises disease transfer from cages not properly cleaned,reduces overall weight and is considered durable for reuse.  Cages come in two halves, making long term storage easier. Metal screws and nuts are used to join top and bottom halves. Plastic screws can break and come apart. Many airlines and transport companies will not accept cages with plastics clips or screws. Suitable for: Dogs & Cats

Hints and Tips

The length of your pet (L) must be taken from the tip of the nose to the base of the tall. The height of your pet (H) is from the top of the head to the ground. If your pet has ears that are erect (e.g. German Shepherd), you need to measure from tip of ears to ground (especially when entering the UK). Both measurements must be taken when your pet is standing erect. • Add 5 cm to both measurement (L) and (H), and that is the length and height your pet’s travel crate needs to be.

The crate performs dual functions as it can be used for air travel as well as in homes when you are going out and your furry friend is in JODO karate mode.

The kennel door is made of strong steel to keep your pet unharmed if your pup ever tries to pull the door inwards experimentally. In addition, the metal nuts provide extra security.

The travel crate only lacks in having good water and food trays, causing trouble for the staff when they have to open the door to feed the pet. Also, it does have a top opening door which would be reachable by the large dogs, and they can damage it.

Petmate brand has fifty years of crate experience to announce the best airline-approved dog crate features.

5. Suncast Deluxe Pet Carrier

Suncast Deluxe Pet Carrier is the best pet carrier for flying as it is an affordable product with the required important features of an airline-approved crate.

The crate features two separate compartments on the upper side for putting treats or your pup’s favorite toys and items. It also has separate food and water bowls attached to the door. Your beloved feels royalty having everything in its hand, and trust me, our pets deserve it.

The Suncast Deluxe Pet Carrier also offers a personalized name sticker. This pet carrier comprises high-quality plastic and a wire resin kennel door. The company does not compromise on the product’s quality because that would equal risking pet safety over a few bucks.

The pups’ habit of wandering in the house and staying in the kennel can be difficult. However, the wire door is mighty enough to handle the continuous blows of your smaller pup when he starts bouncing on the doors to let him out. Only the plastic clamps are a problem because certain airlines disapprove of using them in travel crates.

Only the plastic clamps are an issue, but the users can fix this issue.

It has an easy latch system and a handle. The 3-side ventilation is admirable to make your pup’s travel as soothing as yours. The metal bolts give toughness to the crate to make sure that your pet would safely land.

This crate is lightweight to be carried easily but does not compromise on the sturdiness in terms of the dog’s security. Its assembly is quick, and it is easily cleanable.

It meets almost all the necessary airline standards as the product claims. A surprising feature is that the buyers can also use it for cats. Its plastic is made in the USA, and other components, including the handle, are imported.

Features of an IATA Compliant Dog Crate

There are plenty of dog crates available but choosing the best travel dog crate is always a concern. We have enlisted the important IATA-compliant features that should be present in a crate.

Before buying a dog crate for your canine make sure that your pup’s crate is airline approved to avoid any kind of mess prior to the flight and make your journey hassle free. The following must be the considered features before buying IATA approved dog crates.  

The pup will be uncomfortable if the travel kennels are smaller than the dog’s size. And, if it is larger, the dog will hit the walls when the crate is mistakenly handled forcefully.

According to the standards of most airlines, a travel kennel should be higher than the dog’s ear when he stands. It should be 1.5 times longer than your pet’s length. It must have enough room for the dog to turn sides, stand, sit and lay down. Just make sure not to buy such a bigger travel dog crate that your pup starts practicing for a marathon in it.

A portable dog kennel must be made of rigid materials like plastic, solid wood, plywood, fiberglass, and a wire mesh. Plastic nuts are not advised; however, metal nuts with plastic caps are preferred. In addition, it should have a zip-tight single metal door because plastic doors are not very sturdy.

Also, the pet crates should never have top-opening doors. The soft-sided carrier is never suitable for travel because the dog will be able to break them easily.

Ventilation

The airline-approved dog crates must have ventilation on the 4 sides of the crate to bless the pets with fresh air. The ventilation area should be 16% of the total space according to the guidelines of IATA . The ventilation mesh panels must be welded and tight fit so that the dog does not damage them. In addition, the meshes should be soft and plane so that they might not hurt the paws and nose of your little pup.

A solid and absorbable floor is preferred.

The best airline-approved dog crate should have the “Live Animals,” “Laboratory Animals,” or “This Way Up” labeling. Moreover, an ID sticker is more beneficial.

It will help if you buy travel crates with carrying handles. You do not have to carry the crate in your hands. Also, the airline staff would easily move the crate because of the handle.  

As per official international guidelines, the travel crates must have detachable wheels. Otherwise, they will keep rolling in the airplane, making it unsafe for the pet.

Separate Food and Water Dishes

The airline-approved crates must have food and water dishes attached with the lockable doors for the convenience of airline staff. So, they don’t have to open the crate every time to feed the dog.

No, the airlines do not provide crates. Instead, you have to buy one airline-approved dog crate yourself for your beloved.

Most airlines have different crate requirements, so confirm those before buying one.

Carrying regular dog crates on a plane is never allowed, but you can take an airline-approved dog crate. The airlines have specific demands for pet carriers, and if your crate meets all the demands, congratulations! You are all set to go.

The airplane crates must be 1.5 times higher than your dog’s length, and the dog’s ears must never touch the roof.

It should have enough space for your dog to change sides, lay down, sit or stand.

According to the airline standards, except for the crate, you should take your pet documents with you; its vaccination certificates, medical certificates, prescriptions, feeding instructions, health certificate, and passport.

Buy airline-approved dog crates and never choose soft crates for airline travel because they are not durable.

Some owners sedate their dogs so that they may not have to take care of them. But, according to airline regulations, you should never sedate your dog before flying because the airline looks after them responsibly.

Train your dog to stay in the crate because the anxious pets may get panicked if they are not already trained. Also, you should always inform the staff if your dog is allergic to any food or following some diet.

Always embellish your crate lining with a soft bed and cushions to save your sweetie pie from potential accidents.

Moreover, avoid long-haul flights because your dog may suffer from breathing problems if the temperature gets too hot or cold.

Tell the staff about your pet’s feeding instructions so that they do not have to face any issues dealing with your canine.

Human lovers demand stars and moons and many things to prove your love to them. But, on the other hand, your dog is humble and just wants to go with you when you are flying to another country. Therefore, you can fulfill its demand by buying an appropriate travel carrier approved for an international journey.

We have jotted down the top 6 best dog crates that you can opt for international or domestic tours, and the criteria for IATA accepted dog crates.

In the end, we wish you and your love to reach your final destination safely.

Touring the Top 10 Moscow Metro Stations

By Claudia Looi 2 Comments

Komsomolskaya metro station looks like a museum. It has vaulted ceilings and baroque decor.

Hidden underground, in the heart of Moscow, are historical and architectural treasures of Russia. These are Soviet-era creations – the metro stations of Moscow.

Our guide Maria introduced these elaborate metro stations as “the palaces for the people.” Built between 1937 and 1955, each station holds its own history and stories. Stalin had the idea of building beautiful underground spaces that the masses could enjoy. They would look like museums, art centers, concert halls, palaces and churches. Each would have a different theme. None would be alike.

The two-hour private tour was with a former Intourist tour guide named Maria. Maria lived in Moscow all her life and through the communist era of 60s to 90s. She has been a tour guide for more than 30 years. Being in her 60s, she moved rather quickly for her age. We traveled and crammed with Maria and other Muscovites on the metro to visit 10 different metro stations.

Arrow showing the direction of metro line 1 and 2

Moscow subways are very clean

To Maria, every street, metro and building told a story. I couldn’t keep up with her stories. I don’t remember most of what she said because I was just thrilled being in Moscow.   Added to that, she spilled out so many Russian words and names, which to one who can’t read Cyrillic, sounded so foreign and could be easily forgotten.

The metro tour was the first part of our all day tour of Moscow with Maria. Here are the stations we visited:

1. Komsomolskaya Metro Station  is the most beautiful of them all. Painted yellow and decorated with chandeliers, gold leaves and semi precious stones, the station looks like a stately museum. And possibly decorated like a palace. I saw Komsomolskaya first, before the rest of the stations upon arrival in Moscow by train from St. Petersburg.

2. Revolution Square Metro Station (Ploshchad Revolyutsii) has marble arches and 72 bronze sculptures designed by Alexey Dushkin. The marble arches are flanked by the bronze sculptures. If you look closely you will see passersby touching the bronze dog's nose. Legend has it that good luck comes to those who touch the dog's nose.

3. Arbatskaya Metro Station served as a shelter during the Soviet-era. It is one of the largest and the deepest metro stations in Moscow.

4. Biblioteka Imeni Lenina Metro Station was built in 1935 and named after the Russian State Library. It is located near the library and has a big mosaic portrait of Lenin and yellow ceramic tiles on the track walls.

5. Kievskaya Metro Station was one of the first to be completed in Moscow. Named after the capital city of Ukraine by Kiev-born, Nikita Khruschev, Stalin's successor.

6. Novoslobodskaya Metro Station  was built in 1952. It has 32 stained glass murals with brass borders.

7. Kurskaya Metro Station was one of the first few to be built in Moscow in 1938. It has ceiling panels and artwork showing Soviet leadership, Soviet lifestyle and political power. It has a dome with patriotic slogans decorated with red stars representing the Soviet's World War II Hall of Fame. Kurskaya Metro Station is a must-visit station in Moscow.

8. Mayakovskaya Metro Station built in 1938. It was named after Russian poet Vladmir Mayakovsky. This is one of the most beautiful metro stations in the world with 34 mosaics painted by Alexander Deyneka.

9. Belorusskaya Metro Station is named after the people of Belarus. In the picture below, there are statues of 3 members of the Partisan Resistance in Belarus during World War II. The statues were sculpted by Sergei Orlov, S. Rabinovich and I. Slonim.

10. Teatralnaya Metro Station (Theatre Metro Station) is located near the Bolshoi Theatre.
