Live Animals
The transportation of live animals can be stressful and challenging for all involved, but where there are long distances to cover, carriage by air may be the swiftest and most humane method.
Specialized Live Animal Transport
Safe and Compliant Care for Every Journey
Transporting live animals requires special attention to their unique needs and requirements, and a careful eye on their safety on board and on the ground. We ensure full compliance with IATA’s Live Animal Regulations, climate-controlled and pressurised air carriage, and specialist handling.
We also offer the possibility to rent special containers, including horse stalls and kennels, and can arrange for cargo attendants to accompany the live animals on board.
See how we helped repopulate Tbilisi Zoo after the devastating floods in 2015
Coyne Airways has helped repopulate Tbilisi Zoo by flying animals including a tiger, wallabies, sheep and penguins on board a Boeing 777 Freighter.
The zoo was hit by flooding following a freak storm on 14 June 2015, in which more than 300 zoo animals either drowned or were shot by emergency forces, and at least 20 human lives were lost.
A significant number of survivors escaped onto the streets of Tbilisi, resulting in interesting scenes including a giant African hippopotamus grazing on roadside greenery and bears perched next to air conditioning units on the first floor of a residential building.
