PET TRAVEL TIPS

Do you want to bring your pet along with you when you travel by plane ? Airport rules for pet transport can vary depending on your departure country and destination. Please note: animal transport may be restricted or limited on some aircraft types or for certain destinations. Your animal must have all required vaccines in order to be permitted on board. All dogs and cats traveling within the European Union must be identified by an electronic chip. It should also possess a European passport. Provided and completed by an authorized veterinarian, the passport identifies your pet and certifies that it is properly vaccinated. Please note: For travel to Ireland, Sweden, the UK or Malta, additional sanitary conditions apply. We recommend that you check with the embassy of your destination country. For travel outside the European Union, consider the regulations enforced in the originating and destination countries (vaccinations, quarantine, etc.).

Transport par avion

Les règles de transport de votre animal peuvent varier selon votre pays de départ et de destination. Pour connaître les modalités de transport, savoir s'il peut voyager avec vous en cabine ou en soute, ou s'il doit obligatoirement être transporté par fret, il est impératif de signaler sa présence dès la réservation de votre voyage. TRANSPORTER VOTRE ANIMAL PAR FRET Dans certains cas, votre animal ne peut pas voyager avec vous en cabine ou en soute. Votre animal de compagnie doit être transporté par fret si : -l'animal et sa cage pèsent plus de 75 kg, -votre animal de compagnie voyage à destination d’un pays n’autorisant le transport d'animaux que par fret. À noter : sur certains types d'avions ou pour certaines destinations, le transport d'animaux peut être limité ou interdit.

Non permitted animals

Category 1 dogs, as defined by the French Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Forestry, are not permitted for transport in the cabin, or as baggage or cargo. These so-called “attack dogs” do not belong to a particular breed but are similar in morphology to the following: Staffordshire Terrier or American Staffordshire Terriers (pit bulls), Mastiffs and Tosas.

By Freight

TRANSPORTING YOUR ANIMAL BY FREIGHT In certain cases, your pet cannot travel with you in the cabin or in the hold. Your pet must be transported by freight if: the animal and its container weigh more than 75 kg / 165 lb, it is traveling to a country that authorizes animal transport only by freight.
