Traveling By Ship Or Train
Traveling by Ship
With the exception of assistance dogs, only a few cruise lines
accept pets—and usually on ocean crossings only.
Some lines permit pets
in private cabins, but mostly they are confined to kennels.
Contact cruise lines
in advance to find out their policies and which of their ships
have kennel facilities. If you must use the ship's kennel, make
sure it is protected from the elements.
Traveling by Train
Amtrak currently does not accept pets unless they are assistance
dogs. (There may be smaller U.S. railroad companies that permit
animals on board.)
Many trains in European
countries allow pets.
Generally, it is the
passengers' responsibility to feed and exercise their pets at
station stops.
To ensure a smooth
trip for you and your pet, follow the general guidelines suggested
for other modes of transportation when planning to travel by ship
or train (see link
below).
