I hope the link works. So far all hotels and cottages in Negril seem to have a no pets policy, but if people were allowed to bring their dog on vacation with them, some people might want to and some hotels might have to change to pet friendly ?? maybe ??
Other than someone travelling with a service animal ...
Why would you bring a dog or cat on vacation ..with you ??
It might be a good idea to keep the little guys at home. I love my dogs but could not imagine putting them thru the travel.. They get the own vacations anyway :)
I didn't read that as pertaining to tourists. I took it as long term visitors, not short visit tourists. I really hope they're not going to let every tourist who wants to bring their pets, do so. Seems like opening a huge can of worms.
Now this was one new interesting turn of events when I read it. As usual the article was very sketchy with few details, but I did read the line something like " Approved countries" , so the first thing I knew was don't ASSUME USA will be one of them. For a country that has eradicated rabies this is a move that does not make much sense to me. However, could boost $$$ and if this was holding some folks back , oh well.
The interesting part will be all the "fees" JA can now put on such , over and above the $$$ of fido's airplane ticket. This will be an interesting story to watch.
Anyone bringing a pet from the US has to place the animal in a 6 month quarantine first IIRC, pretty much negates any tourist bringing Fido on vacation IMO.
So have you seen this in writing under the new guidelines proposed? Please tag me.Quote:
