Started with an email from Stephanie:
I'm planning to fly in-cabin with my two green-cheeked conures and would like to know if custom-designed carriers are still available for purchase. If so, I wanted to know how to set up a custom order since the carrier will need a divider. It will also need to fit under the seat in front that has 20 in x 19 in x 9 in of clearance.
We can create a draft invoice for your review based on your specification. Are you traveling domestically or internationally? There are very few airlines accept birds as pets in cabin, we are not aware of the airlines with the dimension you specified.
I will be flying Delta Airlines domestically since they are the only airline I found that allows birds in-cabin.
When researching Delta's in-cabin kennel requirements, they state, "The maximum in-cabin kennel dimensions are determined by the aircraft dimensions of your flight, as the under-seat space varies by aircraft. Delta recommends a soft-sided kennel with maximum dimensions of 18” x 11” x 11” since this fits most aircraft types."
The specific aircraft (Airbus A321neo) I will likely fly in lists its underseat dimensions as (depth x width x height) 20 in x 19 in x 9 in.
Do they not get along? Which color would you like and when is your travel date?
The birds will tolerate each other if divided, but they won't get along in a shared space. I would love to have the carrier purple, and I am planning to travel on May 8th.
I want to ensure that the birds will be comfortable and make the trip as stress-free as possible. The flight will be 6 hours with no stops, so I want to make sure they have access to food and water as well.
Here is one we made last year for a Grey and an Eclectus (CM35315) with the dimension of 18x11x11" We can make it in purple color. We created an aluminum angle bar for attaching the perch on both ends.
That's exactly what I was looking for. I like how the doors are designed on each side and the privacy flaps as well. Since my birds are smaller than a Grey and an Eclectus, will the perch diameter be slightly smaller to suit their feet? I also want to confirm that the hole spacing where the perch goes through the divider will be small enough to prevent one of them from squeezing into the other compartment.
Yes, the perch diameter (thickness) for GCCs is about 0.55" and the grommet size on the divider is about 7/8".
We then drafted and emailed Stephanie an invoice for confirmation. Once confirmed, we created this page link for a 50% deposit. The balance and shipping fee was processed when we finished the carrier and emailed her the tracking number.
