Pet-first transatlantic aviation

Built around a single passenger: the pet.

Pawtier is a Washington/Dulles private aviation company running super-mid and heavy jets between IAD and Paris, Madrid and London, alongside a Miami–Santiago pilot route. Every flight is door to door — home pickup, FBO handover, in-cabin monitoring, destination customs, and final delivery by a pet-trained VIP concierge.

Why Pawtier, briefly

Two service modes, one operating model — and a single, audited door-to-door service.

Accompanied

Owner or family share the cabin with the pet. Recommended for personal travel where a single owner wants certainty on every leg.

$9,250 – $10,750 / seat

Escorted

A Pawtier concierge accompanies the animal alone, wherever regulations permit. Unlocks relocation firms, breeders, diplomats, military and corporate moves.

$10,500 – $12,750 / booking

Whole-aircraft charter

Bespoke schedules, super-mid or heavy jets, multi-pet households. Modeled against an initial ~$80K–$100K direct trip cost.

$105K – $130K / sector

Launch routes

Four transatlantic sectors, three launch routes and one Latin America pilot.

The launch sequence is built around regulatory awareness. Operating base is Washington Dulles — every IAD sector runs on a documented EU non-commercial or UK AHC workflow, with the Latin America pilot kept light to validate the playbook before scale.

Door to door

A five-step crossing, audited from the curb to the receiving family.

No animal is routed through a shared cargo hold or a commercial lounge. Every leg’s coordinator hands the next a documented record — temperature, hydration, behavior, paperwork state.

Request the process checklist
  1. 01

    Home pickup

    A pet-trained courier arrives at your door with a Pawtier carrier, no shared vehicles.

  2. 02

    Private-terminal handover

    Direct FBO-to-FBO transit. No shared lounge, no cargo hold — your pet stays in-cabin.

  3. 03

    In-cabin monitoring

    A vet-trained attendant is at altitude with the animal for the full duration of the flight.

  4. 04

    Destination customs

    USDA APHIS endorsement, microchip verification, EU non-commercial or UK AHC paperwork — handled.

  5. 05

    Final delivery

    A pet-trained VIP concierge drives the animal to the receiving family at the other end.

Regulatory awareness

EU non-commercial. UK AHC ten-day rule. Charter-private-aircraft carve-out.

The launch is mapped, end-to-end, against the rules that decide whether the pet crosses at all. We route inside the windows the regulators publish — not around them.

EU non-commercial movement

Up to five pets per person, outside commercial resale. Our EU routing assumes this so a breeder run doesn't accidentally re-classify.

UK Animal Health Certificate — ten-day rule

AHC valid for entry within ten days of vet issue, onward travel to a vet check within four. We pre-date this on every UK sector.

Chartered-private-aircraft carve-out

Private movements are treated separately from commercial airlines. Documented carrier chain is non-negotiable; Pawtier maintains it.

USDA APHIS endorsement

Pre-flight veterinary inspection, microchip pull, and endorsee paperwork are coordinated from origin so destination customs has no surprises.

Questions, asked plainly

The short answers the booking email usually asks first.

Plan a crossing

A short note, with a date, gets a quote the same week.

Tell us the pet, the route, and the time window. We'll come back with a mode recommendation (Accompanied, Escorted, or charter), an indicative number inside the published bands, and the paperwork lead we'll need.
