....and nothing happened!!They arrived in the Kuala Lumpur International Airport healthy and safe!!

When we left Indonesia I put Godzilla,Thorn and Shena in a huge dog's cage,the babies Shena and Thorn in a small cage inside the big cage(to protect them from the wild GODZILLA),
we went to the Jakarta's airport where the crew took very good care of them("How funny it's not a dog, it's a iguana!!!LOLOLOLOl")and nothing bad happened!!But I didnt put any food or water because I thought perhaps they could get sick and vomit all over the cage.
They arrived well, stayed only a few minutes in quarantine(the papers were 0k), they liked their new home, and I didnt have any problems with them since then.

PS Thorn lost part of his tail one week after this trip but this is another story!!

: If that is not an option, you can keep him in the carrier with some newspaper, maybe a towel, and some greens to eat. Keep paper towels and garbage bag handy for him pooping (when they get upset sometimes they will). I would not let him sit out of the carrier unless you are traveling with someone else who can watch him closely (and if he is small, I wouldn't let him out either). It is too dangerous to have him distracting you on a long trip...you will endanger your own life as well as his. I speak from experience...they can try to crawl under your pedals, on your face, etc....major hazard!
