  • In this episode, we explore the topic of airline and road trip travel with Ana and her sun conure Papuż. We chat about the essential aspects of international and domestic bird travel. We talk about Ana’s specific experience from Europe to North America with the requirements, paperwork, quarantine regulations, airlines, choosing the right travel carriers, and more! Buckle up for an informative podcast as we discuss the importance of diligent research and direct communication with the relevant authorities. Remember, the adventure of global bird travel is as diverse as the bird species themselves – each country has its own requirements so you need to do your research and connect with the appropriate authorities for the countries you plan to travel between and not base it off the information in this podcast alone.
