Have you have been staying in Thailand, or are planning a trip to Thailand in the near future? Have you ever considered being a flight volunteer? As a flight volunteer, you will be able to help a dog or cat on their journey to their new home overseas simply by adding them to your ticket as extra luggage (organized and paid for by Rescue P.A.W.S.).
If that sounds easy it’s because it is! Simply send us as an email to let us know when and where you are travelling to and we take care of the rest. All you will need to do is meet the dog or cat at the airport for take-off and then again at landing and watch as they are reunited with their forever families! Sending dogs internationally takes a lot of time, money, and organizing, and without the help of our flight volunteers, many animals would not be able to make it to their forever home abroad.
You can become a flight volunteer by filling in our enquiry form or getting in touch with us via email at [email protected], or through our Facebook page.
You can be a flight volunteer if you are travelling to one of the following areas:
You will not be able to pick the animal you take as a flight volunteer, as it will depend on which animals are being adopted. Rescue P.A.W.S. is also part of an international flight volunteer network in Thailand that shares flight opportunities amongst its members and organizations. If we don’t have a potential furry passenger ourselves, there may very well be one somewhere else!
Unfortunately, Rescue P.A.W.S. do not have the financial resources to cover the cost of flights.
No! As long as you are flying to USA or Europe you can be a flight volunteer.
As a flight volunteer you will only need to pay for your flight to your destination. The additional costs including booking the animal onto your ticket is paid for by Rescue P.A.W.S.
We make all the necessary arrangements to get the animal to the airport, loaded onto the flight, and collected at the final destination. All we ask of you is to meet up with our dog handler at the check-in at BKK airport, who will get the animal checked in and loaded onto the aircraft, and to then meet with the adopter upon your subsequent arrival.
You will need to send us a copy of your flight e-ticket and passport which we will need to reserve a spot on the flight for the animal.
The airlines that we recommend and work with are:
We must stress that the entire flight must be by the same airline or airlines that are part of an alliance. If you haver booked a flight already and are unsure whether you can be a flight volunteer please get in touch!
In order to prepare our dogs for travel we require at least 4 business days to get all of the paperwork and necessary arrangements in place.
Terms and conditions apply for each of these airlines. For more details, please contact [email protected].
