Traveling with your pet
Hawaii Superferry will transport certain domestic animals from island to island without an HDOA certificate. Cats, dogs, chickens, pigeons and rabbits can travel on us, but please observe a few rules:
- Please make reservations in advance if you plan to travel with a pet.
- Dogs are allowed to travel freely inside your vehicle at your discretion as long as windows allow adequate ventilation but prevent animal from escaping.
- All other animals traveling in a vehicle must be contained within appropriate enclosures to ensure they cannot escape or inflict injury to themselves.
- Both the animal and kennel will be subject to inspection and approval.
- Domestic livestock and poultry may travel in a vehicle if accompanied by a Hawaii Department of Agriculture Certificate of Ownership & Movement (Hawaii Department of Agriculture Animal Industry Form DC-44). This is limited to domestic cattle, horses, donkeys, goats, sheep, and chickens.
- A DC 44 can be obtained from the port staff on the day of the sail.
- Pets are not allowed to travel with unaccompanied children under 18 years old.
