Where do pets go on airplanes?


Pets are safely placed in "Hold 5," located at the rear of the aircraft. This section of the cargo hold is climate-controlled and maintains the same temperature and pressure as the cabin. The captain is notified of animals on board and ensures that these conditions remain optimal for the pet throughout the flight.
