Weile,

I am unsure who told you that you can't check pets with American anymore. I have Karmin already booked for the flights I booked on sale for $133 with American last night. I then emailed AA Live Animal to verify and received this reply already tonight. Same requirements as the past four years too.

Good Day,


Thank you for your interest in shipping with AA Cargo. We are still shipping animals as "checked pets" on passenger tickets within 100 lb weight limits (dogs and cats only). We also ship almost 14,000 animals or all types every year unattended as cargo. Some narrow body aircraft are restricted on kennel dimensions.

The passenger web site is www.AA.com. Click on site map and you will see "Traveling With Pets" in about the middle of the page.

For cargo:

Please fill out the required information on the Pet Shipping Request Form at the following link:

https://www.aacargo.com/forms/animal_request.jhtml

We will process your request within one business day and e-mail the information back to you.

Live animal shipping requirements are available at https://www.aacargo.com/shipping/animals.jhtml

Best Regards,

AA Cargo Pet Specialty Desk

Please let me know if I am booked on an American Air flight if I may send my pet via cargo. I had heard you no longer allow pets to be checked, is this true?
