Be a Flight Angel

Fly a dog home.

Flight angels are travellers who help us by escorting a dog on their commercial flight from Mexico to the US or Canada, to their forever home or a partner rescue. We cover the dog’s travel expenses, so there is no additional cost to the flight angel.

Key takeaways

You fly as planned; the dog travels on your booking, escorted by you.
We cover the dog’s travel expenses. No cost to the flight angel.
Once a dog has an adopter, we post a callout on Instagram for that route.
Register your upcoming trip and we will match you when a dog needs your route.

How does being a flight angel work?

Once a dog has been chosen for adoption, we put out a callout on Instagram asking if anyone is travelling to the city where the dog needs to go. If your trip matches, we take care of the dog’s paperwork and travel expenses, hand the dog over to you at the airport in Mexico, and the adopter or partner rescue receives the dog on arrival.

What does it cost me?

Nothing. We cover the dog’s travel expenses so that there is no additional cost to the flight angel. You only need a confirmed flight on the right route and a bit of time at each airport.

How do I hear about dogs that need a flight?

Follow us on Instagram to see the callouts as they go up, or register your trip below so we can reach out directly when a dog needs your route.

Frequently asked questions

Which routes do you need?

Flights from Mexico to cities in Canada and the United States where adopters or partner rescues are waiting. Each callout names the exact route.

Does the dog fly with me in the cabin?

It depends on the dog’s size, the airline and the route. We sort this out with you before the flight and cover the costs.

Do I need to do anything at customs?

We prepare the dog’s documents in advance and brief you on the steps at each airport before you fly.

What if my plans change?

Just tell us as soon as you know. We will find another flight angel for the dog.
