Lufthansa Cargo offers several live animal transportation services to all international destinations, including many favorite vacation spots. Their employees provide individual care and food to your four-legged friends, who can then recover nicely from their travels. You can avoid unnecessary stress on animals by waiting to bring them to the aircraft until shortly before departure. When booked in advance, flying pets as cargo with Lufthansa includes an airline-approved plastic kennel. Available in four different sizes, they are fitted with absorbent liners and plenty of ventilation.
