I flew Delta three years ago with the five ferrets I had at the time and they were just fine! Delta was great, too. The flight crew was really nice and quite interested in my little fuzzies. Everywhere knew to expect me - we had the ferrets in the cabin and my dog and three cats in cargo! Note that you can only have one carrier per passenger in the cabin so you'll have to have a second person to have the second carrier. Also be sure to book your flight well in advance as they limit the number of crates in the cabin per flight - it's as low as two or three. You can reserve your spot and then pay the fee for the crates when you arrive for your flight. Not sure what the charge is now but when I moved it was very cheap. I paid $150 for the two carriers in the cabin and had three ferrets in one and two in the other. Don't bother putting in food or water - takes up too much space and they'll make a mess with it. What I did was carry a small bag of kibble and then a water bottle that I could hold down for them to drink from once in awhile. I flew all the way from Fort Lauderdale, FL to Seattle, WA with a two-hour layover at Dallas/Fort Worth. My friend and I took the crates into a baby-changing room during the layover and let the ferrets stretch their legs He manned the door while I let one out at a time. I also piled a bunch of paper towels in one corner and they each took turns going potty. Not one of them went potty in the carriers during the flight. I had a small fleece blanket in each carrier which they snuggled right into. Email me if you want more info about flying. I was worried it would be really hard on them but they pretty much snoozed away the majority of the flight. We did alarm this snooty lady ahead of us during the flight, though She'd sneered at my crates full of ferrets while we were boarding and then Oliver let out a shriek during the flight when someone tried to grab his NBone ;) Be prepared to get lots of attention if you have a layover. We were mobbed at Dallas/Fort Worth when I took out and cuddled Duncan. I'm surprised the papparazzi didn't run over expecting to find a celebrity ;) - Laura and The Seattle Seven at www.ferretocious.com http://ferretocious.hyperboards.com [Posted in FML issue 5259]
