Anyone with parrots?

I was wondering if any of you travel with parrots? I have a Sunday Conure and an African Grey. If any of you do travel with parrots, could you tell me how you do the cage setup in your Monty? I'm just trying to get some ideas about getting the optimum placement with a minimum of space.

In my old TT (Fleetwood Terry 34P), I had one cage set up on an old 10 gallon wrought Iron fish tank stand, and the other cage was on the dining room table. I want to utilize the space better in the new 5er (3475RL). I thought about stacking the two cages to save room, but I don't know where to do that. Anyway...any ideas would sure be appreciated!! Thanks....Jan

We travel with an African Grey in our 3400. She is in a 24 x 24 x 5 ft California Cage. We pulled one recliner and that spot belongs to the bird. When we travel the cage is bungied to the dinning room slide right at the doorway into the 5er. Works fine. In our old Terry we actually had a perfect place without loosing furniture or using a table. Between the bird, 2 puppies (1 35 lbs the other 125 lbs) and various lizards we travel with a zoo.

We travel with an Umbrella Cockatoo. We surrendered one recliner and the little table. We initially kept her in a small travel cage (previously we were never gone more than a few days) but since I retired and we are in Arizona for a couple months, we went out and bought her a new cage. It stands almost 5 feet tall, on wheels, really easy to clean. It fits nicely between the recliner and a small freezer, all of which are back against the big window. The plan is to lay it on its side and strap it to the sofa.

The travel cage must be used in the truck, as the bird hates Rich. I bought it, on line, from an outfit in California. It collapses down to a few inches tall and is currently in the underbelly.
