Check the price:
What you have to pay for travel with animals varies according to how far you are going and if you take the animal with into the cabin or not. Check with your airline what conditions apply to your pet and your trip.

The airlines have different requirements for the size of the cage / bag, depending on the animal travel in the cabin or checked in. Check in advance what applies to your pet.

Vaccinations:

Weaning:
Let your pet get used to the cage that you will use to transport a few days before the trip.
Small food and drink:
Do not let the animal eat or drink over the last four hours before journey. We also advise against giving the animal a sedative as this means that it takes longer for your pet to get used to new surroundings.
Allow plenty of time:
It may take longer to check in when traveling with pets. We recommend that you are at the airport three hours before departure.
Smaller pets in the cabin:
Some airlines allow you to bring your cats and small dogs into the cabin. Check with your airline hvillke rules apply.
Larger pets and kortsnutede animals checked:
It’s fine to check in your pet. They then travel in a ventilated part of the aircraft. Pets heavier than permitted weight in the cabin must be checked. The same applies kortsnutede animals such as French bulldog and Persian cats as they may have trouble breathing normally during flight. Check with your airline well in advance what is applicable for your animals.
Heavy pets as cargo transportation:
If your pet and cage together weighing more than 75 kg, must be sent as freight . That means you and your pet does not travel on the same flight. Contact a firm offering freight and inquire further about the possibilities.
– Animals react differently when they travel. Some are quiet, others are stressed and anxious. For that journey should be as comfortable as possible for you and your pet, it is important to prepare well. Are you having your pet in the cabin is smart to contact the cabin crew when boarding and inform them, says Carina Bergqvist in airline KLM.
