Rejected petition Change law to require airlines operating in the UK to allow small pets in cabin

It took us two days to return via multiple transport means with puppy being on his own for 9 hours at one of the transport.This journey would take 3 hours if pets were allowed to be brought by plane in cabin into the UK.Putting them in Cargo causes trauma to pets and costs £1,000 one way at minimum

More details

As per previous petition, Government claimed it was up to airlines to decide in such matter. However, they mentioned we could start petition for Government to make it a law for airlines to accept pets in cabin
