Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) operates a regional transit system that serves the City of Chicago and 40 neighboring communities. CTA provides bus service and the trains of the “L” in and around Chicago. CTA Pet Policy: Only small pets, inside of a closed protective carrier designed for travel and able to be carried by one person, are allowed on CTA buses and trains. Carriers must be constructed in a manner that ensures the protection of other riders and of a size that is able to fit under a seat (though they may be kept on a rider’s lap instead of under a seat). Carriers, however, cannot take up or obstruct their own seats, seating areas nor pathways on buses, trains or in stations. To ensure the comfort of others, animals in carriers need to behave in such a way that does not disturb others. Customers traveling with any animal must be in complete control of the animal at all times. Customers traveling with any animal are responsible for the behavior of the animal. Service animals (animals that are trained to perform tasks for individuals with disabilities, as defined by the Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations) are permitted on CTA property and vehicles at all times.
Taking a pet to the United States involves preparation and planning far in advance of your departure date. Health certificates may be required for entry into some states; you should check with officials in your state of destination prior to your travel date. Find info on bringing a pet into the U.S.
