Default Anyone driving to Vancouver this holiday season?

I am looking for someone coming out west here for the holiday who can bring a fish back to Calgary for me. You would just be simply taking the properly packaged fish from me to Calgary where someone would be picking it up on the other end at YOUR final destination or at least along the way. We are willing to pay you. I have not worked out a number yet but we can talk if your willing to do me this favour.

You would be making someone very, very happy as well as a very special fish!

Thanks!

The fish is for me, and I am very flattered that Justin feels I am a wonderful home for his precious puffer. I would be more then willing to drive part of the way to get this little guy. I know it sounds like a lot of woirk for a puffer, but it would make me really happy to have him.

You can always bring him carry on... PLEASE!!! I know you can put a dog in a soft sided crate under your seat... why not a fish? I would reimburse you for it, as well as pick you up at the airport, buy your something to eat, and give you a ride home...

Well with an offer like that…(now not to be greedy but if you got a frag or any corals, I’d enjoy those more then you buying me something to eat)

Now you realize I live in Edmonton.
My flight is for Monday January 5th I’ll be arriving in at midnight. (Well 12:06am)
You would be willing to meet me at the Edmonton international air port at that time?
Now do they charge to bring an animal (fish) on the plane? I’m flying with west jet.
If it works out I’m more then happy to do this for you guys.

I am Pretty sure you can't bring it on with you on any airline. It is the fluid issue. Nothing liquid over 100ml i believe. You can't even take on a bloody pop or full size tube of toothpaste.They were going to confiscate my cans of Ravioli but apparently someone got a brain before they actually took them but they did proceed to take the frickin toothpaste cause you know i could do something with a tube of toothpaste...
Like really...
