American Airlines partners with My Pet Cab

American Airlines is partnering with animal transport company My Pet Cab, offering pet owners home delivery for their furry friends.

Starting on September 1, customers booking travel for their dog or cat can add the delivery service to their booking through an American Airlines Cargo pet booking agent.

The booking agent will provide an exact price quote for the delivery and can book both air and ground transport, providing the customer with a single charge.

My Pet Cab will deliver the pet in a specialised vehicle equipped with secondary air systems and electronic monitoring thermometers, remote cameras and vehicle monitoring systems.

Drivers will provide real-time text messages and the pets will have access to My Pet Cab’s 24/7 on-call vets.

The service is available for pets travelling to Boston Logan, Charlotte Douglas, Chicago O’Hare, Dallas Fort Worth, Washington Dulles, Houston George Bush, Los Angeles, Miami, Newark Liberty, New York JFK, New York LaGuardia, Philadelphia, San Francisco and Seattle-Tacoma airports.
