Call the airline. I'm in the travel industry so I know it can be rather expensive. It depends on several things like do you want them in the cabin or in the cargo area and it also depends on their weight and the size of the crate they will be in.

Go online and find the airline's website. There is usually a page they have that will tell you what it would cost to have your dogs fly. Most airlines are somewhere between $100 to $200, but depending on your destination, I am not sure. Also, you have to have your vet get health certificates for your dogs so that you can carry them with you, and that can cost just as much as the airline charges. Typically the price that the airline lists is for ONE WAY, so if you are coming back, you will have to pay that again. Check with your airline though - each one is a little different.

I am the founder of the Dogtravel Company and suggest you make some calls. It depends on how you want to transport you dogs. We only endorse flying with pets in the cabin of the aircraft. It can be extremely dangerous not to mention stressful to fly a pet in cargo. There's a reason they do not allow humans down there to make sure the animals are ok.
I would also suggest exploring ships as well. Costs can be comparable. We can provide private flight services between Korea and Hawaii, and can check into travel by ship.
If you are looking at commercial carriers, pricing can change frequently so make sure you have the most current pricing before booking. Fuel costs are still high
