Pet Travel Question: Choosing Pet-Friendly Airlines

Is there a good website that reviews/ranks specific airlines for history in moving pets as cargo? Just when I think I have figured out our dogs travel I Google and end up getting horror stories!
Are there any airlines that
PetRelocation.com suggest to use/not use?
Thanks,
StephanieHello Stephanie,
You're right to place a lot of importance on this decision. Choosing a pet-friendly airline is one of the key parts of planning a successful pet move. We definitely prefer some airlines over others, as some have made an effort to follow pet-safe programs and made pet safety a priority.
We actually wrote a whole series of on our blog about
pet-friendly airlines (hopefully you'll take a look!), and for
Australia we generally choose
Qantas and
Air New Zealand.
