Couriers wanted for dog flights

With the large number of dogs flying to Holland and Germany, we would welcome people that can take dogs with them when they fly (back) to Holland or Germany.

"Taking dogs with me on the flight, isn't that a lot of hassle?"

Actually, it is not. The procedure is very simple, and the CAS volunteers do all the work for you:

You wait in the queue to check in your luggage, just as you normally would. While you're queueing, CAS people will fill in the forms at the FlightCare office. When it's your turn at the check-in counter, you check in your luggage. CAS will show the dog passports to the airline employee, and he/she will then stick a luggage sticker on the dog cage(s).
Sofar all is the same as usual for you. Now we all take the dogs and cages to the scanner for the special bagage (where also golf clubs, skis, bicycles, etc. are scanned). The cages are scanned, the dogs are placed in the cages, and off they go. CAS hands the dog passports over to you, and you can go through security to the gate. So at Malaga airport, it takes you about 5 minutes more than usual.

After your flight, you have to wait for the bagage and the dogs to arrive. The dogs arrive when all the luggage is off the plane. They are brought separately on a cart. In most airports, this means that the dogs are there
before the last piece of luggage is on the belt.

You take the cart(s) with the dogs and walk through customs to the arrivals hall. There you are welcomed by the volunteers of Dutch charity Hond zoekt Huis, as well as the families that have adopted the dogs. It's probably the biggest welcoming committee you've ever had waiting for you at the airport (unless you're Robbie Williams, Mick Jagger or David Beckham).

All in all, it is not much extra work to accompany dogs to their new homes.
Only 5 minutes at the Malaga airport (but you have to wait for the plane anyway, right?). And a few minutes extra at the arrival. But the reward of happy children welcoming their new friends is more than worth it.

Please contact CAS if you are flying to Holland or Germany, or if you have guests flying there.
