Summer and I have been doing everything we can to get Monkey and Kuta down to Puerto Rico. We were originally told that we could fly them on Continental Airlines via their award winning Pet Cargo travel program (the dogs are flown in climate control and priority) but when we went to book the ticket the operator told us that Continental can only fly pets during peak season if the flight is less then 74% full. Too bad they didn’t tell us this before…we would have flown them down earlier.
Because of this FAA restriction, I have been calling every day (you need to book 3 days out) trying to get a spot for the dogs. Two days ago, the operator told me there was a flight available on the 23rd of July (72% filled) and to call back today, on the 21st to book it. Well, I called all of the numbers for the pet travel program and they are disconnected AND the regular operators for reservations don’t have the ability to transfer me to that department. Needless to say, now I can’t call to book the tickets for the dogs this morning. Hopefully they will get their phone system working soon. This is starting to be a pain in the ass.
