Word. The baggage handlers mistreating the dogs is the least of your concerns. If you're one of those spawns of Satan who pack all your stuff in a duck taped cardboard box going to Manila, that's when you need to worry about your stuff getting thrown around.
When I first started working the ramp for WestJet - opened the hold on a flight in to Edmonton from Halifax - that dog had been trying to chew through his kennel for 5 hours. Blood and teeth everywhere. A lot come in with blood on their noses from just ramming their faces against the kennel.
Cats are chill. They'll just bury themselves in their blanket and not move. A quick poke to make sure they're alive and away ya go.
