Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

No, Jon I'm sure you wouldn't do that. I just recalled some past headlines of some people who did, and thought the story I linked was interesting. I don't think you would do that at all.

Good! We're just advising you against it in case it crossed your mind.

Why not call an airline and ask if they can be taken on as "Accompanied Baggage" as long as properly packed? Then it would be the same as if shipped, but you would be there at embarkation and disembarkation.

Personally I'd just fedex them. It's not worth the headaches and regardless of what they tell you, the idiot you're dealing with at the actual airport may or may not have the same understanding of the rules which could lead to further delays. At the very least, I would want to get something in writing.

I know it is a little late, but...
If you are reading this, call the airline. Tell them the truth, what you are carrying, where are going from and to.
Some of the time, they will allow you to carry on in the cabin. If not, they will allow you to check it in. You will need to drop off the package 4 hours before your fight leaves. You will have to follow all the guidelines.
If you are not allowed to carry them on the plane, they will be able to ship them as freight.
All of this will be more expensive then just shipping them over night with ship your reptiles or what ever service you prefer.
I know this because in college I had some biologist try it. Some of the time they where handed the package in cabin. Most of the time they where force to ship it as freight.
All the time, it was easier. cheaper, and faster to ship it with a service like reptile express or shipyourreptile.
