Allow pets from Turkey to travel to the UK on direct flights
The government should allow direct flights to the UK with our pets. The current requirements for travelling with pets are very strict and despite having to wait for 4 months we cannot fly directly to the UK and can only use approved routes via other countries or agencies
Many pet owners in Turkey must follow strict rules to bring their pets into the UK. The rules for bringing animals via approved routes are time consuming, costly and cause stress for both us pet owners and our beloved pets. The government must allow us to fly directly into the UK after making us wait 4 months before we can travel. The change in this rule will mean that families will be able to travel directly without having to travel via other countries or pay extortionate agency fees

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
We can only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.
All pets travelling to or returning to Great Britain must do so on an approved route and by using an approved carrier. The decision to apply to be an approved carrier and carry pets is a commercial decision for individual airlines, and not all airlines will choose to carry pets.
We are sorry for the delay in checking your petition.
