buying animals @ daytona

jpman78 Jul 17, 2006 12:44 PM

I'm a newbie to the daytona show and this will be my first year down there. If you are flying in and out and would like to purchase an animal what are your options for receiving/taking the animal back home?

Thanks!

It's like most other trade shows where if you buy an animal, the vendor gives it to you. When you leave the show you've got to figure out how to get it back home!

Was that the question you wanted answered?

Most dealers will ship the animals to you if purchased. Some Airlines will allow the animals to be carried on as carry on luggage but you would have to check with your airline.

No airlines will allow you to carry on reptiles. It is against federal law. In this day and age it is likely you will get caught so not really worth trying to sneak them on. Arrange with the dealer to ship.

Will let you ship the animal back with you on the same plane. You can call Delta they have a number you can call for the paper work on shipping live animals.
