My Pet Move

See. Spot. Move.

Hello! I am new to this group and need some informed help from somebody that has already moved their pets from the US to the UK. My husband is in the military and we are leaving for the UK on February 9, but because of the PETS process to get our pets there, they will not be following until mid-April.

Our 70 lb. Rhodesian Ridgeback, Mila, will be flying out of Phoenix, AZ and our two cats, Max and Indy, will be flying out of Tucson, AZ. We were told that the only option for flying them into the UK was on Continental cargo. I called Continental and they quoted me about $3,000 to fly all three pets and get them through customs. There has to be a less expensive option! I've heard of many people flying their pets over for less than $500.

Has anyone does this and does anyone have any suggestions for me?!?! Thank you!!!

WOW, 3000 dollars whew, Its seems like the right price but yea...expensive!!!!!!, I have been researching different options, It may be cheaper to let a professional complete half of the process and you guys the other. I know there are also Various companies that offer military discount. ( I'm also in the military headed to the UK this April) I was disappointed that the military could not help me with my move to the UK, because there are options with the military when PCSing to different areas in Europe. Try happytrails.com and see what kind of quote and discount you may receive.


Let me know how things work out or if I can help
