If a person can’t take a trip without their animal then they shouldn’t take the trip or shouldn’t have an animal. If you are not disabled the animal should be boarded at facility near your home or you can hire a pet sitter. If that is not acceptable- drive. If there is an ocean crossing then take a boat.

Price is the price. Don’t like it- leave fluffy at home.

The loss rate on animals in cargo holds is less than 1 in a thousand yeah it makes the news every time it happens but that does not make it common.

I'm sure it is "less than 1 in a thousand". 1 in a thousand would be absolutely horrible odds. They'd be dying left and right.

What is unreasonable is stressing the **** out of your little furry friend because you think it's cute to have him/her along on your trip.

My German Shepherd gives zero cares about flying, driving or boating.

But that doesn't mean I'm going to travel with her by commercial plane.
