on the road with Animalcouriers

Frequent flyers Harvey and Lola reach Grand Cayman after an unexpected delay, while Toby and Max make the long journey from Turkish North Cyprus to France.

Although many of our passengers travel by road through Europe, pets heading to and from more exotic or complex destinations often take to the skies.

Harvey and Lola, 2 dogs from England to Grand Cayman

These gorgeous little dogs are frequent flyers between their London and Grand Cayman homes. Their recent flight to Cayman was all going to plan until suddenly it wasn’t as, at the last minute, BA was unable to accept them. That meant a 24-hour wait for Harvey and Lola until the next flight.

So we took the dogs into a hotel room near Heathrow airport, and walked, fed and generally spoiled them until they could board their flight the next day.

Owner Julian was kind enough to send a note and these delightful photos of them relaxing in Cayman. He told us: “Lola and Harvey do not seem any the worse for their ordeal. Thanks for shifting gears quickly to get them on the next flight.”

Lovely Lola

Toby and Max, 2 dogs from Turkish North Cyprus to France via Turkey and the UK

Splendid Toby and Max flew from Turkish North Cyprus to Istanbul, where they changed planes for their onward flight to London. We collected them at Heathrow and drove them to northern France, where owner Janice was over the moon at how chilled and happy her precious boys were after their three-day journey.

Janice says Max loves having his photo taken and has a special camera-ready smile. We have to agree!
