History of loosing pets in SA?
I am moving to AUS and my two dogs are coming with me. There have been numerous reports of pets being lost and dying. Once while in George, boarding a flight, I watched a simpletin instead of walking it through a cat box to another moron who dropped it and it burst open and on que the cat ran across the parking bay. They spent a good 30 mins chasing the cat.
Now is there much truth to this as I heard from some what reliable people they do go missing.
I know this is very strange but I phoned QF and asked if I buy the entire First Class Cabin can my pets travel with me and my respective family members in it. Understandably they thought I was joking. I am not thou.

GRRRRRRRR.
Moving pets though is more expensive than a Y ticket. 6 of us are flying, excluding pets, so it isn't as if it is for 2 people and 2 dogs.

There are limited services to charter jets out of South Africa, a Learjet is really starting to push the envelope, not to mention a Gulf Stream and it would require 2-3 stops due to ETOPS.
I have a rough and border collie.

Seriously, I'd call the main office and keep pushing until you talk to someone in charge.
