Many myths exist about shipping pets as cargo. We thought we'd review some of them.

Myth:

The pet cargo hold is dangerously hot/cold.

Reality:  

On most flights that accept pets, the cargo area itself is climate-controlled just like the passenger cabin above.  So why do airlines have temperature restrictions?  While many airlines have "Weather Embargoes" during the summer/winter months, it is not because of the cargo hold temperatures.
