Are these Crates meets with IATA CR82 requirements? if yes do you have certificate?

I have no idea what that is, but you will not find a stronger and fairly light weight crate/ I shopped online and many pet, hardware, and farm stores. For metal and sturdy plastic. this is by far the best, but fairly pricey in my opinion. Another online company sold a great product, but did not make a crate large enough for my 80 pound Labrador dog.

I don't know. Perhaps a call to the company that makes the crate may answer your question best. Love my maroon one.

Yes, but please use expedited shipping only. I can't ship them standard because they will be confiscated by customs without International Tracking, and standard does not have a tracking number.

No not airline approved. No sift sided crate will be unless you carry on, this one is to big for that.

They are not "certified" in California or Iowa, they have an extra level of certification that Berkey has chosen not to pay for. We ship to CA all the time, so you can order them.Hope that helpsA Better Life Now

Yes they will work for an XL crate, I just used them for an international flight last month. I did have to use a bag and half though so make sure you order two bags per crate!

I hope you're not internet trolling, but yes this crate complies with airline requirements for 'flying' dogs

Like previously mentioned the bolts are metal and the wing nuts are plastic. I don't see a problem with that but you will definitely have to drill holes in the rear upper portion of the crate. I would use a drill bit no larger than a 1/2 inch and drill about 25-30 holes in a circular pattern at least 5-6 in. diameter. If it makes you feel comfortable carry steel wingnuts with you because they do have strict rules. Drilling the holes in the rear is a must though. I would call the airlines and have them transfer you to the loading dock that handles live animals and ask them .

I would check with the airline if they specifically call for needing a handle on top of the crate, but I've never heard of one needing a handle on top of the crate.

Yes they are, but keep in mind it only pertains to the "production" of the crate. For example, all of the consumer requirements (i.e. "live pet" label, externally accessible water and food container, etc. would be the responsibility of the pet owner.

They are metal screws, 11 total on the crate seams with additional hole for tie downs. The crate holds up well to the rigors of luggage handling, our dog has made three or four flights already and her crate was approved easily every time.Additionally when the crate (full of exuberant puppy) fell off my little airport cart and barrel rolled, there was no damage to the crate or dog; she just looked confused as usual. Definitely meets domestic airline specs, though you'll need to supply food/water dishes as they are not included.

Has anyone tried to ship with this crate? A shipping company is telling me that it cannot be used because it's a collapsible crate, but the manufacturer and other reviews are saying that it's IATA approved. I'm confused... Either it is or it is not IATA approved -- why are there different comments?

Not sure about FAA approved - but I think there may be some info on the labels that come with the carrier. I removed mine and did not keep them

I do not know if they are ATC Compliant. They are standard fuses that will fit in a normal automotive fuse box.

I ordered mine quite a long time ago, but they came in a box. The crates are very durable, so even though they were just loosely in a box, they were fine.

The crate is not as sturdy as past generation crates, but I reckon it would be acceptable for air travel. I'm not sure if they stack crates or how they are managed in planes. Nonetheless, it's a good, lightweight crate. It might be good to do a little research to see if there are other crates especially rated for air travel?

Hi, they are shipped in medium size boxes that weigh about 30-40 pounds. I don't see it being a problem checking them in for a flight. Hope this helps!
