Airline Approved IATA CR-82 Compliant

IATA stands for the “International Air Transportation Association” and is responsible for formulating air travel policies and standards.  CR-82 stands for “Crate Requirement #82” which outlines the current crate requirements for dogs being transported in the cargo area.  

ZINGER AIRLINE APPROVED CRATES comes with an airline kit which exceeds all IATA CR82 requirements. The strong aluminum construction can easily withstand airline transport while keeping your dog safe and secure.

The Airline Kit Includes:

• Air travel rails
• Plastic water and food bowls
• ID Tags
• "Live Animal" labels

*Important Note: Airlines can impose more stringent requirements depending on your breed, location, distance traveled and aircraft type/size etc.  An Airline has the right to refuse travel to any pet so it’s important to check with your specific carrier and know the requirements before you travel.  We have found improper sizing to be one of the main points of focus for many airlines, so please refer to our "Sizing Tab" at the top to make sure your crate is the correct size.

ZINGER Crate Video Overview

ZINGER Airline Approved Crate Features

• Strong & Lightweight - Zinger aluminum dog crates offer incredible strength at one third the weight of steel. Unlike plastic and wire crates which easily crack and bend and need to be frequently replaced, Zinger crates are built to last a lifetime!  For security reasons, all ZINGER lock and mounting hardware are made from stainless steel to provide exceptional security and eliminate the risk of rust or corrosion.
• Solid Doors – Reinforced with solid bars and welded for extra strength the door is built to last. A full-length piano hinge and striker plate is standard and the door can be easily reversed to allow left or right-hand opening. 
• Aluminum Construction – ZINGER crates are constructed from lightweight aircraft grade aluminum which is known for its durability and strength. Aluminum crates are perfect for dogs who often destroy or break out of plastic and wire crates. While built to be strong and secure, Zinger crates are light enough to be handled by one person with little effort.
• Ventilation – A Zinger crate is fully vented down each side and along the back wall to provide maximum comfort for your dog. Our open design allows air to pass freely thru the door aided by the triple rows of lower and upper vent holes which surround the crate. By its very nature aluminum quickly dissipates heat making it a great material to construct dog crates provided there are enough air holes. Lots of adequate venting ensures your dog will remain safe while in its crate.
• Locking Slam Latch – Each door comes with a flush mounted paddle lock which is keyed for added security while you are away from the crate. Rest assured that someone cannot simply open the crate and walk away with your dog. Made from strong "stainless steel" for durability and to prevent corrosion.
• Airline Travel Approved IATA CR-82* - ZINGER crates exceed all requirements by most airlines and the IATA for safe air cargo travel. With the airline kit pre-installed, this crate can be used to ship a dog by air. The strong aluminum construction can easily withstand airline transport while keeping your dog safe and secure. Kit includes: air travel rails, water and food bowls, ID Tags, "Live Animal" labels and deadbolt covers.
• Modular Design – All ZINGER crates can be coupled side by side or stacked atop one another to form multiple dog crate systems or kennel banks.
• Beautiful Finish – ZINGER crates are finished in a durable “Silver Hammertone” powder coat both inside and out. By powder coating the inside as well as the outside it protects your dogs coat from discoloration (coat discoloration is common when a dog sits in an untreated aluminum crate). This will not happen in a Zinger crate.

Sizing

Use instructions and diagrams below to properly measure your dog:

Correct crated sizing is very important, especially if you are planning to travel with your pet on an airline.  Airlines can refuse travel to any pet that they feel does not properly fit their crate. A standard rule of thumb is that when the dog is standing in a normal relaxed position the crate should measure 2 inches above the top of his head.  A visual indicator for the airline attendants who are in charge of getting your dog onto the plane is that they are able to see your dog comfortably stand up and turn around in the crate.

STEP 1:  Measure your dog based on the diagram below

A = length of the animal from tip of the nose to the base of the tail.
B = height of the animal when standing, from top of head (or ears, whichever is higher) to the floor - ears must not touch the top of the kennel when standing.
C = width at the widest point. 

STEP 2: Calculate the size of the crate needed for your dog

The length of the kennel must be equal to A + 4". 
The height of the kennel must be equal to or greater than B + 3". 
The width of the kennel must be equal to C x 2.
