Pet Transportation Challenges During PCS Moves
Airline pet travel regulations have changed dramatically in recent years, with limited availability on commercial flights, Space-A restrictions, and stricter policies for in-cabin and cargo travel. These limitations often leave service members with few options for relocating their pets.
Pax Pet Transport provides PCS pet relocation solutions designed specifically for military families. We assist with both domestic and international pet transportation and work closely with you to find the safest and most affordable option for your pets.
We recognize that pet relocation costs can be a burden, especially for underpaid service members. When possible, we offer flexible payment plans on a case-by-case basis and help you navigate relocation services and benefits
.Because military orders can change with little notice, our team is prepared for last-minute confirmations. Pax Pet Transport does not charge rush fees or travel date change fees for military clients.
Did you know that eligible military members may be able to deduct pet relocation expenses under IRS Section 521?
Certain costs related to PCS moves—including ground pet transportation or air travel—may qualify as deductible moving expenses when relocating to a new duty station. Consult your tax professional to confirm eligibility and learn how military pet relocation costs may apply to your tax return.
