How do we work?
Many people ask questions such as, “Can I fly for you?” or “Can I pay you to fly my animal from one place to another?” or “Can you pick up this animal for our rescue?”
The short answer: No.
The long answer: We are a passionate bunch of folks concerned about the well-being of the at-risk animals, so we locate and take possession of the animals we can help most, and then fly to wherever we need in order to have them placed in safe new homes.
We are NOT a cargo company. We are NOT a charter company. We don’t fly custom missions for others, and we don’t advertise our services to others for transportation. Some of our staff are pilots, and we utilize their skills to transport our own animals from one location to a final destination which may be a rescue organization, fosters or adoptive homes.
If you’re interested in flying for charity or using your plane for charitable purposes - there are a number of great organizations you can help, and we’re happy to direct you.
If you need an animal transported, please contact the airlines or cargo folks - many of them have great options in place for charitable pet rescue flights, and because we’re all interested in animal welfare, reach out to us and we can help locate viable options for you!
If you wish to adopt or foster animals for our rescue, we’re happy to have you help - please do contact us at info@ameliaair.org
