IATA Travel Crates & Safe Handling Standards

IATA-Approved Crate Sizing for Dogs & Cats

Crate size depends on your pet’s:

Basic crate comfort rule: your pet should be able to stand, turn, and lie down naturally without being cramped.

Crate Training Tips to Reduce Pet Stress

• Introduce the crate 7–14 days early if possible
• Feed treats inside the crate
• Keep the door open during training
• Add familiar bedding with your scent
• Practice short crate sessions daily
