In-Cabin Air Transport
Semi-Private Flights
Best-in-class service for larger or special needs dogs that can’t travel by commercial airline
How many times have you wished your larger canine companion could enjoy the comfort of in-cabin air travel instead of being confined to a cargo hold?
Now, with Signature Pet Transport, it's time to turn that wish into a heartwarming reality.
We're reinventing the standards of pet travel, especially for those bigger, equally adorable dogs who've long been restricted by the conventional rules of commercial flights.
Utilizing the superb services provided by K9Jets & JSX, we offer a revolutionary pet transport solution: a crate-free, in-cabin flight experience for cats and well-behaved dogs of all sizes.
This isn't just a flight; it's a high-flying adventure, overflowing with safety, comfort, and companionship.
With their dedicated Travel Guardian by their side, your dog will relish the thrill of the journey as much as the destination.

Beyond Legendary Service
Your beloved family member will enjoy best-in-class service and you will have the comfort of knowing your pet is in excellent hands.
In-cabin air transport on a semi-private airline is great for all dogs and cats, especially larger dogs and those with special needs.
On these flights your pet can travel in it’s own seat or in a large soft-sided carrier!
No stressful crowds or noisy terminals
These flights depart from and arrive in Private Terminals.
That means a more comfortable stress-free travel experience for your pet.
Ultimate comfort for your pet in the air and on the ground
Most cross-country trips on semi-private airlines will require connections and layovers.
This is actually a great thing!
Since these flights operate from private terminals, the amenities are top notch.
Private terminals have large grassy areas where your pet will be able to stretch their legs, potty, and play between flights.
Ever-expanding destinations
Available for most domestic U.S. destinations and some international destinations
JSX is constantly adding new routes.
Most cross-country trips will require a layover or connection.
We work with the airline to find the most direct routing for your pet.

Let's Talk Pricing:
Now, about the numbers…
For most transports with-in the continental US, you can expect a total cost between $2,000-6,000.
For most transports to/from Europe, you can expect a total between $12,000-20,000.
We know the price tag of $2,000-$6,000 for a one-way trip might have you wondering,
"What's up with that range?"
Well, it's because every pet's journey is as unique as they are.
Things like how soon you book before flying (airfares on semi-private flights can fluctuate from day to day, just like on commercial airlines), and the total travel time (yep, some coast-to-coast & international trips might even include a cozy hotel stayover!). Additional considerations like door-to-door service, travel document preparation, and customs clearance can all play a part in the final quote.
We're all about being upfront and working with you to figure out the best plan for your budget and your pet's needs.
Think of it like putting together a tailor-made travel package, where we dot all the i's and cross all the t's to make sure your pet's trip is just purr-fect.

Frequently Asked Questions for Semi-Private flights:
-
A semi-private flight allows cats and dogs to travel in-cabin with their travel guardian. These flights are operated by JSX and K9Jets. They operate out of private terminals. So there are no stressful crowds and noise, typical of a commercial airport terminal. Additionally, the smaller passenger capacity on these flights allows for more personalized attention and a quieter environment, which can be beneficial for pets with anxiety or fear of flying.

Full terms are detailed in your transport proposal and contract. Here is an overview:
Organizing, requesting, & confirming a pet's move is much more complicated than human travel. As a result, all changes to the travel plan initiated by the client after a booking request has been submitted to the airline will incur a $500 rebooking fee plus any additional costs as a result of the change (e.g. different airfare prices because of a different flight or airline).
❗👉 One free change to your itinerary is allowed as part of our Premium packages!
In the event that you need to cancel your transport after you've signed up with us, the following refund schedule will apply:
0-7 days after this proposal is signed, you'll get 90% of your deposit back, minus payment processing fees (~6%).
8-21 days after, you'll get 66% of your total payment refunded (deposit + any payments made additionally).
22-45 days after, you'll get 33% of your total payment refunded (deposit + any payments made additionally).
Over 45 days after or within 10 days of the planned travel date, you'll get 10% of your total payment refunded (deposit + any payments).
