[Gpdd] MISC: Flying with Piggies

[merle.jaffe at thomson.com]

I know this topic has come up before but I have to admit it seems like a
long time ago and I didn't think it would ever apply to me.  Has anyone
ever flown from the US to an international destination with a pig?
Flight time will be approx 9 hours (plus).  The country will admit
guinea pigs so that doesn't seems to be a problem, but I can't imagine
how to pull off  that long of a trip, especially if they won't allow him
in the cabin (could he even survive the trip in cargo?) Any experienced
travelers out there?  Also, has anyone researched what airlines will
allow them (ideally in cabin?) I think I will be limited to US Air,
Continental , American or Swiss Air given my destination (Switzerland).
Any GPDD'ers near Zurich?
 
Lucky,  and very stressed out slave
