I'm migrating to Australia from the UK and have 2 cats.The flight is 22hrs and my airlines say cats must travel in the hold/cargo. My concerns are:
1 Loss of cabin pressure in the cargo hold during flight?
2 Low temperatures at high altitude ?
(Quantas airlines website says make sure you tell the captain that your pets are in cargo so that they can regulate the temperature/conditions as it can get sub zero. At what pint do you ever get to speak with the Captain before a flight)?
Also, I understand that there is a risk CABIN PRESSURE can be lost at any stage during a flight in such holds where the baggage/Live animals are stored - so i'm guessing if there are live animals on the flight they would have to endure 22hrs in sub zero temps and run the risk of suffocation at any point)!
You may be familiar when you have flown. aerosols sometimes leak out into your suitcase when you land..ie loss of cabin pressure. This seems to happen a lot.
Can somebody please give me some advice on this. Thank you.
