Relocating back to the USA

4 years ago

Hello,
My wife and I are currently trying to repatriate back to the United States from the United Kingdom. The issue we seem to be running in to is we have 2 dogs and are unable to fly them (one is a 17 year old puggle and the other is a French Bulldog, as they are both brachycephalic (snub nosed) breeds we are finding many airlines have banned flying them or force them into the cargo hold. We have booked passage on Cunard cruises Queen Mary II but we are unsure when the cruises will actually be allowed to go ahead again and are unsure if we will be able to extend our visa's past the end of this year.

As a backup plan we were looking into chartering a private jet but the cost is simply too high, we were reaching out to see if anyone else was in a position similar to ours. We were thinking if we could get a group of people in a similar position chartering a flight would be much more manageable for everyone.

Alternatively if anyone has any other ideas or experiences we are open to them.
