Perhaps I am mistaken, but flying a reptile out of the US to another country would be considered export and likely need all the accompanying export permits to be legal….Read: a giant mess of paperwork.
out of country? next to impossible to do any country you go to will probably want to quarantine . Not to mention customs health certificate. leave the at home honestly
I agree with above and most airlines won't let you fly them in the cabin. Bad idea taking them with you. Find a tort sitter
Very difficult to manage and stressful for the tortoises.
Staying at home with a sitter is recommended.
