Hi!
Has anyone flown internationally with pets and connected through Vancouver (YVR)? I'd really appreciate hearing about your experience.
I'm flying from Thailand to Calgary with Air Canada. I will have:
A cat in the cabin
A dog traveling in the cargo hold
My pets will have the required health certificate issued by the Thai government veterinary authority, as well as rabies vaccination certificates.
I'm trying to understand exactly what happens upon arrival in Vancouver. From what I've gathered, I will need to:
Go through immigration and customs.
Collect my dog from the oversized baggage/live animal area.
Present the pets and documents for inspection if required.
Proceed to the domestic connection area and re-check the dog for the Vancouver-Calgary flight.
Is that correct? Were your pets inspected by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) or only by customs? How long did the process take, and was there a designated pet relief area available during the connection?
Any tips or things you wish you had known in advance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
