- WHAT WE DO -

Booking Space On The Aircraft:

Our staff will assist you with your flight bookings for your pets & other wild animals as per your intended itinerary and flight dates for exports. We have accounts with all the major airlines and will ensure we find the best routes to place as little stress on the animals as possible. We will book your animals on all airlines licensed to carry AVI (live animals) flying all over the world. The Team:

We have a booking team, with more than 45 years' experience in the animals airfreight industry, who will guide you through the booking process on exporting animals. Justus Britz - General Manager
Sean Spice - Operations Manager
Kevin Smal - Operations
Fanie Van Rooyen - Specialist Wild Life Consultant

The above team members are available 24 hours to accommodate our customers as well as assist with urgent matters or enquiries. They know all the routes, flight schedules and the sizes of the crates that can be accommodated by the different airlines to suite your requirements. Submitting All The Relevant Paperwork:

It is the exporters/shippers responsibility to ensure that ALL export permits, veterinary health certificates and CITES documentation are in place when exporting animals. If you are not sure what the regulations are, you need to contact our offices for guidance. Documents required are :

Import permit issued by the destination country
Export permit issued by country of origin (CITES)
Blood test results to confirm animals are fit to fly
Supplementary veterinary paperwork (Certificate)
Pets passport
Other (special requirements)
Export invoice (for wild animals & game bought in South Africa)

Custom Containers:

Our professional staff will guide you to ensure you purchase the right size crate for your pet. We will also assist you with the crate specifications as per the IATA Animal Regulations when exporting all types of animals. No crate is too big to handle. Metal & wooden crates are accepted by most airlines to accommodate the larger animals, like lions, giraffes & rhinos, when flying. Attention to detail:

Ensuring your pet flies in the right sized crate will reduce stress and ensure comfort and security throughout the journey. That is why all our crates are custom made to suit each individual pet that flies with us. The airway bill (ticket) determines the cost of flying your pet with a specific airline and is directly correlated to the volume of the crate in which pets travel. A few centimeters longer than is needed could mean your pet is not going to feel as snug and safe as it could in a bespoke crate and could potentially cost unnecessary extra charges.

3 Pet-Safe Treats & Their Benefits

1️⃣ Carrot Sticks – Low in calories and high in fiber, carrots support dental health by naturally cleaning your dog’s teeth while chewing. They’re also packed with beta-carotene, which promotes healthy eyesight.

2️⃣ Apple Slices – A great source of vitamins A and C, apples help boost immunity and improve skin and coat health. Just be sure to remove the seeds, as they contain small amounts of cyanide.

3️⃣ Peanut Butter – A tasty treat that provides healthy fats and protein, peanut butter is also a great source of vitamin B, niacin, and heart-healthy monounsaturated fats. Always choose xylitol-free peanut butter to ensure safety.

Give your furry friend a delicious and nutritious snack!

Big projects, big impact!

At Flying Animals, we’re dedicated to ensuring the safe and efficient transport of livestock.
We cover a wide range of destinations in Africa such as Kenya, Uganda, Ghana, Angola, and Nigeria just to name a few.

Our expertise in handling full cattle charters sets up apart.

We’re excited to share a glimpse of our latest cattle charter to Kenya in partnership with Singapore Airlines. It’s more than just a journey, it’s about connecting farmers with opportunities across borders. ✈️

Onward to Uganda!

We recently completed a successful export of sheep and goats to Uganda, working closely with Take Off Aviation, to ensure a smooth and safe journey. Together, we’re proud to connect African farmers with quality livestock, helping to strengthen agriculture communities across the continent.
