DUTRAVEL Posted February 21, 2018 #19677 Share Posted February 21, 2018 I will be traveling to panama Canal with my service dog and I can't get answers from anyone. Do you know what paper work I need to disembark in Panama?

rangeley Posted February 22, 2018 #19679 Share Posted February 22, 2018 I like JetBlue too, they have always given us the 1st row bulkhead too. They now have Mint on the flights to the West Coast. Does anyone know what row they will give you if the flight has Mint? Dianne Sent from my iPhone using Forums What is Mint???

rangeley Posted February 22, 2018 #19680 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Welcome back, Cindy, John and still Sexy Wexy! Ya'all are right, us "older" folks have a tough time getting around, feel for our furkids, even if all they do is sit and watch us do the work! :O We have been so busy with "live", not so good health live, that I have been really dreaming of a cruise. We are working on our house, too, DKD and I'm telling ya, every dollar we spend I think how many cruises we could be on! But, alas, the house needs some attention too! Plus I would be a wreck leaving Jezzy Lou with someone. Her Dogtor also has boarding, on site. We have left her there before, but only a few days. I am tempting in getting Antie GiGi to come stay with the furkids and Travis. I am a worry wart, though and have visions of Jezzy, bullying all of them and escaping out the front door to look for her MawMaw. We are on a very busy street and well you know the rest. Anyone, after babbling, like I do so well, hope every one has a great hump day! Carl what day is it? Speaking of which, neighbors down the street have a live size "Camel" in their front yard. Not sure what the significance is? Nancy I cant believe Travis is 15!!! Omg have we been here that long? Lol All of a sudden I feel old.

DUTRAVEL Posted February 22, 2018 #19683 Share Posted February 22, 2018 What is Mint??? Sent from my Pixel XL using Forums mobile app Mint is JetBlue's new business class. They have always given us row 1 and not charged us more even though its an "even more space row." I don't think they are going to let us fly in business for free. So I wonder if they put you in the first row behind business in the planes that have added Mint? Dianne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macallan and Me Posted February 22, 2018 #19684 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Hello Everyone! 32 days until cruise day! I'm still VERY nervous about bringing Macallan but I'm completing all his paperwork and getting everything ready. I'm not at all worried about Macallan's behavior, he's a pro at traveling and never misses a beat. I'm a mostly worried about being able to participate in excursions with a SD in tow (and convincing Macallan to sit poolside rather than pool-in ;p). The cruise (NCL) seems to believe we will be able to do boat tours and bus sightseeing with him, which is what we are interested in anyway. I don't want to miss out on our vacation sightseeing. We've been practicing potty breaks in a box and he seems unphased by this. We are cruising to Mexico, Honduras, and Belize. It appears to me that the APHIS 7001 form is all that is required for Mexico and Honduras but I'm still quite confused about what is required for Belize. Any personal experience from any of you about Belize requirements? I'd also love to words of encouragement/wisdom about excursions. Right now I feel anxious about leaving him and anxious about taking him. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just have all of your paperwork in order and you will be fine. We do a mix of ship's excursions and on our own. We have taken my service dog on trains, whale watching boats and buses/vans with no problems. If its a ship's excursion, as long as they know you are bringing the dog there should not be any issues. I have not been to Belize, but it looks like you might need an import permit.

Right now I feel anxious about leaving him and anxious about taking him. :rolleyes: Your anxiousness will keep you on your toes, it's not a bad thing. But, don't let it run your cruise. Maccallan [cute name] will follow your lead, no matter what your doing or what mode of transportation you're on. Do as much as you can and don't be afraid. The tender boats can be tricky, make sure someone is beneath to guide your dog [because the small boat is shifting from side to side and moving up and down] it can spook the bravest of dogs. Be on the lookout for stray dogs and other animals that may approach your dog. They're more curious and scared. Just shoo them away. It doesn't hurt to carry a "walking stick" to let all strays know that you mean business. REMEMBER: In these foreign ports they don't have immunization regulations like we do and certainly no leash laws. Make sure your dog is on his flea/tick abatement medicine and, of course, Heartguard. All it takes is one mosquito bite to make your dog deathly ill. Also, give yourselves lots of time to get from one place to another because you will be stopped and asked all sorts of questions about your dog by everyone! Have a wonderful cruise!

Caribbean Chris Posted March 4, 2018 #19700 Share Posted March 4, 2018 (edited) APHIS 7001 form question: I'm working with my USDA vet on my APHIS forms for my upcoming cruise and I had a question about the "destination" (box 6). Do I put the Cruise Ship name? We don't really have a destination since we are just going on some excursions. What did ya'll do for this box? Thanks!! My vet and I do it the same way Dianne outlined. A time or two, if I was not planning to get off due to onerous paperwork restrictions, we added “passenger will not disembark with dog in Barbados” or similar. Or you can put that in the comments box. Saves time in case you have to have the 7001 countersigned by a regional APHIS office for one of the other ports and they choose to go over it with a fine-toothed comb.
