Califon, N.J. - Apr. 14, 2020 - As COVID-19 (coronavirus) continues to affect the equestrian industry across the world, EquiJet is keeping a close eye on things for its customers. Although some restrictions have been put in place and proper logistics planning is more important than ever, equine air travel, both within the United States and internationally, is still taking place.

EquiJet is happy to report good news for horse owners that need to ship equine passengers through Newburgh, N.Y. or Miami, Fla. Previously under temporary closures, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Animal Import Centers in both New York and Miami are now reopened. Throughout the United States, normal commercial equine traffic is operating normally.

Unfortunately, there are currently no flights to Canada for horses and locations in the Middle East are harder to reach than normal.
