Fly PETS Act

The Fly PETS Act, also known as Bill 118 s 2193, is a piece of legislation introduced in the United States Congress. The main purpose of this bill is to improve the safety and well-being of pets traveling on airplanes.

The Fly PETS Act requires airlines to report data on the number of pets that are transported in the cargo hold of airplanes, as well as the number of pets that are lost, injured, or die during transport. This information will be made publicly available to help consumers make informed decisions about which airlines to choose when traveling with their pets.

Additionally, the bill mandates that airlines must create a policy for safely transporting pets in the cargo hold, including providing adequate ventilation, temperature control, and space for the animals. Airlines will also be required to provide training for employees on how to handle pets during transport. Overall, the Fly PETS Act aims to hold airlines accountable for the safety of pets traveling on their planes and to ensure that proper measures are in place to protect these animals. By increasing transparency and setting standards for pet transportation, this legislation seeks to prevent incidents of harm or loss to pets while in transit.
