Upon arrival in Korea, customs officers will swiftly confiscate the cute little kitten and immediately prepare it to be consumed in a delicious stew-like substance...... Rolling Eyes

It is a very simple process. Go to PETTRAVEL.COM and it will tell you everything you need to know for the airplane cabin requirements and what shots your kitten will need. No quarantine necessary.

You'll need an international health certificate for the cat. Many vet offices can do it. It can be done no more than 10 days prior to arriving in the country.

Nearly all airlines have approved Serpa pet carriers. My dog came with me. His ticket to fly in cabin cost $80. Small price to pay to keep him with me. I had him start spending time in his carrier a few days before the flight. I also had the vet give me drugs for him in case he got noisy on the plane. Once I got here, I had to spend about 10 minutes waiting in the airport as his paperwork was reviewed. All in all, a very easy process.

If you go to PETTRAVEL.COM it covers all the variety of pets and the airline requirements and country requirements for transporting them. Each airline has extensive detailed information listed there.

Flying within Korea with a pet may not be so easy. Check with the local carrier, such as Asiana, and you may find no pets allowed. So you might have to take the bus or train.

Yup. Everything in my previous post applies when flying to the states too.
