IATA-compliant jet stalls built for safety and comfort

Horses travel in airline-supplied or partner-rented jet stalls designed specifically for international equine transport. Each stall is fully IATA-compliant and provides:

  • Non-slip, shock-absorbing flooring

  • Secure, padded partitions for stability

  • Ventilation and access for in-flight monitoring

  • Space for one to three horses, depending on temperament and preference

  • A front compartment where the groom can access feed, water, and provide in-flight care

Each stall is thoroughly inspected and disinfected before every flight, ensuring your horse travels in a clean, safe, and comfortable environment.

Transporting our horses for the European Championship was a major undertaking, but Eagle Freight made it look effortless. Their professionalism and attention to detail were outstanding — our horses were calm and well-cared for throughout.
