Is anyone flying anywhere from Washington, USA to Europe and could bring a cat with them?
My partner and I are looking to bring our cat home as she unfortunately has been stuck in the US for a long time.
We live in Latvia, so any flights going to Riga or close by, like Lithuania, would be easiest for us to get to.
We’d pay all the pet related fees, of course, (we want her to be in the cabin as opposed to the cargo hold) and a portion of the ticket price.
It would be great to find someone who has experience with flying with pets, but it won’t be a deal breaker if you haven’t.
[EDIT]
For additional information:
We've been working on this for the better part of a year, researching what we can, asking questions of vets, customs, and airlines specifically.
We've contacted and gone over the financials with every USDA certified vet in the area who would reply and got quotes from the IAPATA organizations. She's got her proof of vaccinations and an ISO microchip (there are no extra tests she needs to have done to get her to Latvia), and her current caretaker will be picking up a pet carrier based on the airline she is traveling with.
Pet transport companies are mainly the reason we're looking at this route as they are charging around 4,000 dollars to do it and it’s just the kind of money we don’t have.
