Voilà ce que personne ne vous dit sur Etihad : le microchip est exigé, sans discussion, avant même de penser au billet. Moi et Mochi, ma bouledogue française, on l'a appris à la dure au guichet des douanes. Un bon carnet, une puce en règle, et déjà la moitié du stress s'envole. Le reste, c'est une question de préparation, pas de charme italien.

Questions fréquentes
Combien d'animaux puis-je emmener sur Etihad Airways ? Etihad Airways autorise 1 en cabine, par passager. Chaque animal doit avoir sa propre cage. Combien de temps à l'avance dois-je réserver mon animal sur Etihad Airways ? Ajoutez votre animal à la réservation au moins 48 heures avant le départ — faites-le au moment de réserver le billet, pas à l'aéroport. Et si mon vol est retardé au-delà de la validité du certificat sanitaire ? Si la fenêtre du certificat expire avant l'embarquement, il faudra le faire réémettre. Prévoyez 1 à 2 jours de marge entre la date du certificat et le départ pour absorber les retards mineurs. Que se passe-t-il si j'oublie un document ? À l'aéroport de destination : au mieux, une inspection prolongée le temps que vous trouviez une copie ; au pire, l'animal est mis en quarantaine ou renvoyé à l'origine à vos frais. Apportez des copies imprimées.
Croyez-moi, entre la puce, le poids en cabine et ce fameux délai de 48 heures, chaque compagnie a ses pièges bien à elle. Plutôt que de tout vérifier trois fois la veille du départ, laissez Pawgo construire votre plan personnalisé pour votre trajet exact. Mochi juge la longueur de la file, pas vos oublis, alors autant partir tranquille avec un plan qui tient la route.
