| As of April,19 2011, We are sad to say that we have to raise our shipping cost to a minimum of $325.00. It could be slightly more depending on our actual cost. Continental is still not shipping animals out of Albuquerque, so we have to use other airlines and they vary. Most flights are a minimum of 250.00. We then have to add tax and insurance on top of that. Flight approved crates are 40.00 and the flight health certificate runs around 35.00-50.00. Shipping generally is $325.00 and includes the following. Flight cost, Insurance, Veterinarian Exam, Health Certification for Flight, Airline approved crate for Flight and Transportation to the Airport. If you have frequent flyer miles, etc, you can always fly into Albuquerque and fly the puppy back with you in the Cabin. Continental Airlines is our preferred airlines, but they have discontinued shipping animals out of Albuquerque. If they resume our shipping costs will reflect any changes. We prefer to ship on Continental Airlines, due to the temperature controlled environment the puppies fly in. If there are delays or layovers the puppy is removed to an appropriately heated/cooled building till the flight resumes. The puppy's flight is not dependant on the hourly temperature of the day, ensuring that the flight will not be cancelled at the last minute. (Boxers, and other snub nosed dogs have more temperature restrictions than other dogs). We feel it is safer and more comfortable although sometimes longer for the puppy. If conditions are perfect, and a much shorter or non-stop flight can be arranged on another airlines, we will consider it. We will work with you as much as possible to arrange the best flight for the puppy. We try to ship on Saturdays as it is usually more accommodating for most, but sometimes it is during the week. The puppy will always ship out of Albuquerque, New Mexico. Almost all Continental flights will usually have a stop at Houston, Texas, then to the final destination, which will be the airport that Continental flies into nearest you. |
