A human presence throughout the journey
More Than Pet Transport
For many families, the most reassuring option is knowing that an experienced person is travelling with their pet. Where the route and airline rules allow it, UniPetrans provides professional accompaniment and supervises the journey from departure procedures through arrival and handover.
The pet may travel in cabin when permitted or under another suitable accompanied airline arrangement. We assess the practical options first and design the journey around safety, welfare and regulatory compliance.
What the service includes
Planning an Accompanied International Pet Journey
Accompanied pet travel involves more than having someone on the same flight. Depending on the journey, UniPetrans can coordinate:

- Veterinary and travel documentation review
- Reservations and pet travel coordination
- Airport procedures and check-in support
- Professional accompaniment on the same journey
- Real-time photos, videos and travel updates
Availability, airline rules and documentation requirements vary by pet, route and destination. UniPetrans reviews every journey individually before confirming the travel plan.

Frequently asked questions
International Pet Travel Guides and Resources: Frequently Asked Questions
What is accompanied pet travel?
Accompanied pet travel is a service in which a professional travels on the same journey as your pet and coordinates key stages such as airport procedures, flight travel and handover, subject to the route and airline conditions.
Can someone fly internationally with my dog for me?
Yes, when the route, airline and pet requirements allow it. UniPetrans can assess the journey and provide professional accompaniment where feasible.
Can someone fly internationally with my cat for me?
Yes. Cats can be accompanied internationally when airline, route and destination requirements permit. The exact travel arrangement is assessed individually.
Does accompanied pet travel mean my pet travels in the cabin?
Not always. Cabin travel depends on airline rules, pet and carrier dimensions, and the route. An accompanied journey may also involve an airline-approved hold arrangement when appropriate.
Can UniPetrans accompany a pet travelling in the aircraft hold?
Where the airline and itinerary allow accompanied baggage arrangements, the UniPetrans specialist can travel on the same flight while the pet travels in the aircraft hold.
Which countries do you provide accompanied pet travel to?
UniPetrans assesses international routes individually. Availability depends on the countries involved, airline rules, pet requirements and operational feasibility.
How much does international accompanied pet travel cost?
The cost depends on origin, destination, dates, pet, itinerary and the level of service required. We prepare an individual quotation after reviewing the journey.
