Shipping Animals

Animal lover? We sure are. PAL Airlines Cargo treats animals as if they’re our own. Our top priority is the comfort and safety of your animals. To ensure a stress-free travel experience, if your animal is travelling alone, please make arrangements with PAL Airlines Cargo at least 48 hours in advance. As our rates are based on the dimensions and weight of the kennel(s), this information is required at time of booking. Please call the PAL Airlines Cargo department at 1-888-839-1999 or email [email protected] for more details and to make arrangements.
