Winter Weather Advisory Issued for Pets Traveling in Southeast Texas

If travel with pets in or out of Texas today, the pet friendly airlines have issued weather advisories for most of the Southeast Texas airports.  Weather conditions are expected to make air travel difficult, forcing some delays and cancellations of flights at airports in the region. A Code Yellow is in effect at Houston International Aiport  (IAH)?for Thursday. Current weather forecasts anticipate Houston having as much as a 30% chance of snow, sleet or ice pellets on Thursday afternoon and/or Friday morning.

If you have pets currently scheduled to fly via Houston (IAH) or other Southeast Texas airports, we will be monitoring them carefully but please be aware that there could be delays.  Boarding can and will be arranged in the case of any major delays.

We will be working hard to keep your pets moving and to keep them safe and warm but please note that we may make the decision to not allow pets to travel if we feel that conditions are unsafe. In those instances, we will work with you on planning alternate cities, flights or dates. Although it will be very cold (lows into the teens and low twenty's) until Sunday, Houston is not anticipating any winter precipitation after Friday morning.

A bit of trivia about this Houston weather:  it is the coldest and worst winter on record for them in more than 15 years and it will set a record for Houston if they get measureable snow for the second time this season!
