Re: Question about Pet Transport UK to Canada

Think Geordie Lass already covered this, the dog is 34kg, add on a container and it's probably over weight :unsure:

Re: Question about Pet Transport UK to Canada

I think AirTransat still do, and I got a quote from Petsaway (admittedly it was for my cat), meeting them at the airport £490, which seemed almost £1000 cheaper than some quotes I'd been given. They...

Re: Flying to Calgary

I am also looking at the same thing at the moment and finding that Air Transat one way flight is about £1000 cheaper than an Air Canada return flight.

Re: Skiing: Ontario/Quebec

Guessing you can drive? Why don't you just hire a car for the day/weekend? You don't have to buy one.

Re: Recommendation/Advice - Ottawa v Winnipeg

Maybe the OP isn't thinking of them going to the UK but friends and family coming over. I for one would prefer the 7 hour flight to Ottawa rather than the 9 to Calgary. Our original destination was...

Re: Question about Pet Transport UK to Canada

Interesting! I didn't realise they could go baggage. Guessing the hold there is still pressurised and heated then. I think I'll be checking into AirTransat myself as one quote I got just for a cat...

Re: Question about Pet Transport UK to Canada

I'm not phoning them again, as I only spoke to them yesterday afternoon. First I spoke with sales (number direct from the Air Canada cargo website), who told me I couldn't do it myself and then he...

I spoke to Air Canada yesterday, they told me they no longer take pet from the general public, have to go through a pet shipper :-(

Re: International Airports

My Sister-in-Law lives south of Edmonton (Westaskiwin - yes I know... why? :rofl:) and they always drive to Calgary when they fly back to the UK, they say it's cheaper. They always fly Air Transat.

Ah ha, I knew it wasn't on the list when my BiL applied but thought I heard it had been added, that's why they went on on TWP for him initially as a long haul trucker and the PR was done in parallel...

I would try and get your PR asap. I think truck driving is now on the list as whereby before it wasn't (not been keeping up with it though so sure someone else can confirm). My brother-in-law went...

Re: Moving costs

You can get the shippers round to give you a free quote. Can be anything up to £5k for a 20ft container. The next question you'll be asking is.... who can recommend a good shipper!!! :rofl:
