Drop & go pet flights across South Africa
FlyMyPet flies dogs and cats between 8 South African airports — Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, Gqeberha, East London, George, Bloemfontein and Mbombela — with a simple airport-to-airport system: book online at a live price, drop your pet at the departure airport pet facility, and your pet is collected at the other end the same day. It's the same drop & go convenience South African pet owners know, with one difference: you see the exact price online in seconds instead of phoning for a quote.
How it works
- 1 · Book online in minutes. Choose your route and pet size — the exact price shows instantly, crate included if you need one.
- 2 · Drop off. Bring your pet, vaccination book and crate to the departure airport pet facility about 90 minutes before the flight.
- 3 · Fly same day. Your pet travels in the pressurised, temperature-controlled hold on a pet-approved domestic flight.
- 4 · Collect. You or your nominated person collects at the destination pet facility shortly after landing — or we deliver to the door.

Frequently asked questions
How does airport-to-airport pet travel work in South Africa?
You book online with an instant price, drop your pet at the departure airport's pet facility in an approved crate, your pet flies the same day in the pressurised, temperature-controlled hold, and whoever you nominate collects at the destination airport's pet facility shortly after landing.
How much does it cost to fly a dog from Johannesburg to Cape Town?
Domestic airport-to-airport pet flights start from around $130 depending on your pet's size and crate. FlyMyPet shows the exact price instantly online — no email quotes, no waiting.
What is a pet lounge?
A pet lounge is a dedicated airport facility where pets are checked in, rest before departure and are collected on arrival — a drop & go counter for pet air travel. FlyMyPet bookings include handling through the pet facilities at each South African airport on your route.
What does my pet need on the day?
An approved travel crate sized so your pet can stand, turn and lie down, an up-to-date vaccination book, and arrival at the pet facility roughly 90 minutes before the flight. Your pet should be on a leash or in the crate at the facility.
Can someone else collect my pet at the destination?
Yes — you nominate the collector when booking; they show ID at the destination pet facility. Door delivery is also available as an add-on.
How old must my pet be to fly domestically?
Puppies and kittens generally need to be at least 8 weeks old and fully weaned; airlines may require proof of age for young animals.
