Hi everybody,

my boyfriend and I will be moving from Hong Kong to Cairo in a few weeks. We have two cats which we'll bring with us. We are planning on flying LH, Swiss Air or Turkish Airline because they allow us to take the cats into the cabin. Did anyone of you recently move to Egypt and brought their pet(s)? I have read horrible stories online but most of them are already outdated. What was your experience? Do you have any tips?

Thanks a lot!

I moved from the US to Cairo last month with my two dogs (medium size). Both were in cargo under the plane.They were delivered to me at baggage claim and ABSOLUTELY no one checked their paper work. I passed "customs" without a single question as well. Can you believe it? I was shocked. Therefore, from my experience, i think you will be fine with 2 small cats. any questions feel free to ask!
