Pet friendly cabins to the channel islands

The Issue

Now that the UK has come out of the EU travel to Europe is more difficult with animals and requires animal passports. Travel from the UK to the Channel Islands does not require animal passports for UK residents, but unlike the ferry companies traveling to France, Spain, Ireland and Isles of scilly they do not offer pet cabins or have dedicated areas that animals can stay with their owners. Many people do not feel comfortable leaving their animals in cars for hours on end with sometimes not even being able to visit and of course the risk to them if it becomes too hot down there and the animal takes a turn. By adding better alternatives for travel with animals this will help boast tourism to the islands in a time where countries need to gain back money lost in the past couple years due to the impact of the pandemic.
