Contingency and Diversions

CONTINGENCY:
If for any reason essential equipment at the BIP is unserviceable and it is not possible to offload animals from their containers at the facility, Authorisation must be sought from AHVLA to offload at the Cargo Transit Shed for transport to the BIP in their road transport vehicles. Animals on regular scheduled cargo flights will be transported from the cargo area  in their containers to the BIP by dollies.


DIVERSIONS
If, for any reason, a flight carrying animals from a non EU country is diverted to Stansted, irrespective of its final intended  destination, authorisation to land must be sought from AHVLA and notification sent to the BIP at the earliest possible opportunity.
If adequate  ventilation and other facilities can be provided that will allow the animals to remain on board  before proceeding to its intended destination, Transit procedures will be required.
If the animals are offloaded at Stansted, the full Veterinary Check procedures must be carried out. This applies even if the animals are to be reloaded onto the aircraft for final transport to intended destination within the EU.
