Latest / April Update

April 17th, 2021 by Peter | Category: Pet Transport News

Good news this Month is that flights have stabilised considerably. On the Domestic front we can now book Pets on most routes fairly quickly without having to wait for space. There are also a lot more flights operating allowing for better connections and most Pets can complete their journey in a single day without the need for overnight boarding.

On the International front flights are available from BNE, MEL, PER & SYD to Europe, the UK, Middle East and the Americas via Doha. Some destinations in Europe and Asia also available via Singapore.

There are a few Qantas flights scheduled in late April and May from Darwin to London. These flights are direct and they are accepting Brachycephalic Breeds. Please get in quick if you are interested in booking your Pet(s) on these flights as the spots are going very quickly.

There will be a lot more flights available to New Zealand soon when the travel bubble opens and this make things a lot easier and in some cases more affordable to get your Pets to NZ.
