  Hi Guys,
  
  You guys probably figured by now that I travel a lot and often times i bring my bunnies with me since they are my ESA. This time I may have to fly to florida but I’m not sure if I can bring rabbits into florida through plane. Does anybody know the regulations for importing rabbits into florida? I’ll be traveling by plane.
  Oh if you guys are wondering how my bunnies react to traveling, they are fine. They eat well and drink water during the flights. They’ve travelled with me a lot now so they are seasoned travelers that peak out of their carriers when I leave the top open a lil bit so they can stretch out.
  
  Thank you

  As far as I know, Florida is not one of the restricted regions.
  What airline do you normally fly with?

  I usually fly with United. I have to arrange this quickly because I already scheduled my flight and am really concerned. It’s either I leave them in Guam with my family or take them with me to Florida then to California… I really don’t want to leave them

  It looks as though there is a restriction flying back into Guam. I don’t know if this applies to registered service animals also, but I suspect it does.
  
  Pets are not permitted on flights to, from or through Australia, Hawaii or Micronesia (including Guam).

  Have you been able to fly with them previously back to the island??
  
  I think you would have to get in touch with United via the Customer contact number or email to verify how things stand for ESA animals. If rabbits are accepted, it would be a good idea to have in writing in case there was an issue at time of check-in.
  
  How long will you be gone for?

  I flew them into Guam numerous times already through a very painstaking process.. so I’m clear to bring them back to Guam.
  I go to school in California that is why I was going to fly to California after Florida. I brought my bunnies to Guam for winter break and then it seems that I have to go to Florida for other reasons….
  United already has my file for my bunnies as ESA so I just need to give them a call to confirm I’ll be flying with them…
  The biggest concern for me is flying into Florida because I don’t want to get my bunnies taken away from me D:
  I’d be so heartbroken if that happens!
