Is the 30 day quarantine at your home or some other facility? We will be moving in August. What are the best airlines currently to provide the safest, most comfortable travel for our pets?

Hi Ami,
Thanks for your question! To start, here are the pet import requirements for Bahrain. You'll see that you're required to obtain an import permit, vaccinations and a health certificate. For the most up-to-date information regarding quarantine rules, we'd advise that you check with the Ministry of Municipality Affairs and Agriculture of Bahrain. For good measure, here's one more document from the Bahrain Embassy that might be helpful to you.
As far as flying, it's certainly important to choose a pet-friendly airline that will regard your pets' safety as a top priority. We often use KLM or Lufthansa for international trips, but no matter who you choose you should contact them in advance to find out about their policies.
Please contact us if you have more questions or if you'd like some help with your move, and good luck with everything!
