Animals weighing up to 5 kg can be carried in the cabin. They must be carried in a soft waterproof pet carrier the dimensions of which must not exceed the allowed hand baggage size. The animal’s head must not protrude from the transport container and the animal must not leave the container during the flight.

Cats and dogs weighing more than 5 kg are carried in the hold. For the transport in the freight hold, you have to provide a safe and sturdy transport container in which the animal has sufficient room to turn around and to stand up. Only one animal can be carried per transport container. Under no circumstances may the container be placed on a seat.

Stricter EU regulations came into force on 1 July 2004. All animals must be fitted with a microchip and have the new, blue EU animal passport, confirming an up-to-date vaccination against rabies.
