We have travelled for 6/7 yrs with our dog in cargo on Alaska from vancouver BC to Zihua. $100. not sure going to LA from here but we come in October so can't see it as a problem now. This is when Westjet will allow pets in cargo & not in Oct unless cabin/service dogs. Didn't fly Alaska this year as its now overnight in LA. Aeromexico was great!

Hi, just FYI, westjet charges only $50 each way for a pet in cabin. Air Canada charges $ 125 each way... to travel as a service dog I think you need a vet to give you a form.

The costs may be different in cargo.

I just checked both Air Canada & WestJet websites. Both will carry pets, small ones in the cabin, large ones in cargo. WestJet will also take pets traveling alone as cargo.
Don't know if that will help you, but check their sites out.

Hmmm...

Would Interjet/Volaris/Aeromexico fly your dog to Mexico City? And then from there to LA?

We have moved countries a couple of times and the company has paid for our dog's transport using these people: Animal Transportation

I only have good things to say about them. Not sure about the cost, though.

Feel free to email me if need be.

Looking for current info on how to transport a large dog; approx. 95 lbs with a good crate north from Zihua in late March, early April at least as far as LA. Was told by Alaska Air and United no cargo service from Zihua.

Any ideas even as a service dog on board would be appreciated. Thank you.
