Pets travel in the cargo section of the plane, which is in the hold. They have to be packed with adequate space around them and then they are placed in their cage on the floor of the hold with oxygen getting through the bars of the cage, but suitcases all around them. They cannot be sedated in case they come around during the flight and panic, giving themselves a heart attack. The sound of the engines starting up at the beginning of the flight may have the same effect. So, the kind of plane that a pet can go on is proportional to the size of the pet and how much room it's going to take up in the cargo section. Average sized dogs would probably only go on large planes the size of a jumbo jet. The big airlines take animals. There is a list of all those that take animals and the phone numbers to make enquiries on the DEFRA web site. Department for Environment and Farming.
