Why is choosing the right crate size so important?

The crate must meet IATA Live Animal Regulations (LAR), and incorrect sizing is the most common reason airlines refuse a pet at check-in. An undersized crate is a welfare risk; an oversized one can cause your pet to slide during turbulence. Correct sizing also avoids costly last-minute delays and replacement crate fees at the airport. Airpets uses the measurements you provide to supply a crate that lets your pet stand naturally, turn around comfortably, and lie down without restriction — the three IATA welfare requirements.
