Pet Transport Options
In-Cabin Travel
Most small to medium pets can travel in the cabin:
- Small dogs and cats: In approved carriers at your feet or in a designated area
- Medium breeds: On larger aircraft, pets may have more freedom to move
- Benefits: You remain with your pet throughout the flight, reducing anxiety
Climate-Controlled Cargo
For larger breeds or specific circumstances:
- Pressurized and temperature-controlled: Same cabin environment as passengers
- Professional handling: Trained personnel manage loading and unloading
- Health monitoring: Regular checks during longer flights
