Transporting from Nyrtle Beach reptile Expo

[gulfexports159]

Ok, here is my dilemma. I am going to the myrtle beach reptile expo in august and I live near Pittsburgh Pennsylvania. It is cheaper to fly so that is what I am doing. Does anyone know if they let you fly with like a snake or what? Also, how should I transport any pickups? Should I ship them to myself back home? Assuming small pickups like ball pythons. Thanks guys any info would help!!

I would just ship the snakes back home. Do you really think that airport security is going to let you board an airplane with a snake?

Not after that movie Snakes on a Plane hahahaha... Although I can't see why not if they were packaged properly... How do you think they are shipped over night

[The Serpent Merchant]

Not in the passenger compartment, and only on certain airlines. (most are shipped by FedEx on cargo planes)

I was being funny lol

Yeah your best bet woul dbe to ship them to ur self.

[Stewart_Reptiles]

You need to either ship them to yourself or have the breeder you are buying from ship them to you.

Ok thanks for your input guys looks like I will ship them and do i need a heat pack in the middle of august? Probably not right?

Depends on the temps. Im not sure how "Ship Your Reptiles" works but they sound like a better idea than fed ex imo...
