Airlines Pet Policy
Emirates Airlines is pleased to welcome your pet aboard our
flights. We understand the importance of traveling with your pet and we are
committed to making this process as easy as possible for you.
Pets are accepted on most Emirates flights, and there are
no additional charges for them unless they exceed the maximum weight limit or
exceed the size limit.
Emirates prohibits pets from being transported as checked
baggage, but they can be shipped separately in a kennel.
All domestic flights allow dogs, cats, and household birds,
except for destinations in Africa where only cats and dogs are allowed.
International flights allow dogs and cats only, except for
destinations in Africa where only cats are allowed.
The following
information about your pet will be required:
- - The name(s) of the animal(s) being brought on board (maximum
5)
- - The type of animal (dog/cat/bird), breed, and age of each
animal (if known)
- - The length of time it has been since the last rabies
vaccination
- - Proof of rabies vaccination (for animals less than 12 months
old)
The following
are the rules for bringing your pet with you on an Emirates Airlines flight:
- You must be at least 18 years old to travel with a pet.
- All pets must be registered with the Department of Agriculture
(USDA) before traveling. To register your pet, visit
www.aphis.usda.gov/aphis/pet-travel/pet-travel-forms.
- Pets must be accompanied by a valid health certificate issued
by a licensed veterinarian within 10 days of travel (certificates cannot
be older than 10 days).
- You must also carry all relevant documents from a licensed
veterinarian and have them available for inspection upon request from an
Emirates Airline representative or official at check-in or at the airport
counter before boarding aircraft for travel.
Emirates
Airlines Fees for flying with pets
The Emirates Airlines fees for flying with pets depend on
the type of pet and the type of travel.
Emirates charges $50 to transport domestic pets. This fee
is charged per flight segment, so if you are traveling over multiple days, it
will be charged per day. The maximum number of segments allowed is 3.
Domestic pets must be at least eight weeks old and not more
than 20 pounds (9 kg). The animal must be in a carrier that can be stowed under
your seat or in an overhead compartment. You may be asked to take the carrier
out of its case at security checkpoints in order to verify that your pet is
inside it and identify it as a pet.
If you are traveling internationally with your pet, there
are additional fees: $100 per flight segment for international travel and $200
per flight segment for international first-class passengers who want to bring
their dogs on board with them as well as up to two cats or one dog in their
cabin, depending on the size of the animal.
Emirates also allows airlines to charge an additional $100
per flight segment if they have special requirements, such as having a non-stop
flight or travelling with more than one pet on board.
Types of pets
allowed on Emirates Airlines flights
There are a few types of pets that can be brought on
Emirates flights. The most common are cats and dogs, but there is also a list
of rarer animals that can be brought on board.
Emirates only allows pets to travel in the cabin if they
are small enough to fit in an approved kennel and it costs $100 extra per
flight segment (subject to change). This includes animals that weigh up to 8kg
(17.6 lbs).
The following animals can travel in the cabin as part of
your standard checked baggage allowance:
Cat or dog - no more than 8 kg (17.6 lbs) each, with an
additional fee of $100 per flight segment;
Dogs must be at least 8 weeks old and fully vaccinated for
rabies at least 21 days before arrival; Cats must be at least 8 weeks old and
fully vaccinated for rabies at least 14 days before arrival; Your pet must not
have been away from you for more than seven days prior to arrival – this is
important because it needs time to get used to you again; You need to carry
proof of vaccination with you when traveling (this should state whether the
vaccine is current or not); If your pet is staying in quarantine, you must
provide proof.
Pets are
welcome on Emirates flights, provided they meet the following requirements:
Dogs and cats can travel in the cabin as long as they are
up to 20kg and there is room for them in the kennel. If you choose to check in
your pet, it must be in a suitable container (eg. a hard-sided kennel or
soft-sided carrier).
If you are travelling with more than one pet, each
additional animal must have its own ticket. We do not accept pets in cargo when
flying to or from Dubai International Airport (DXB) or Sharjah International
Airport (SHJ).
Emirates
Airlines Pet Reservations
When you plan to travel with your pet, you may want to book
reservations in advance with Emirates Airlines. The airline accepts dogs and
cats that are four months and older. When booking an in-cabin flight for your
falcon, read the requirements for that country.
Once you've made your Emirates Pet Reservation, you can
check your flight details to determine which airlines accept your furry friend.
Once you've booked your pet's flight, you'll need to contact the airline's
local office and arrange for the necessary documents.
One of the most important requirements is a crate for your
pet to travel in. If your pet is traveling alone, you will need to purchase a
travel crate for your pet. You can purchase a kennel at the airport or a retail
pet store.
If you are buying a kennel, check the size before you book
the flight. Also, remember to check the import rules for your country. You
should allow four days for the processing of your reservation.
You'll need to purchase an approved travel crate for your
pet if you're traveling with them alone. However, you can purchase a kennel at
Emirates locations to help keep your pet comfortable during the flight.
If you’re pet needs a crate, check availability and import
rules before booking the ticket. You should also allow four days for
processing. The airlines will send you an email or text message when you've booked.
Emirates
Airlines Pet in the Cabin
The cabin class pets on Emirates Airlines are dogs and cats
only. They must weigh less than 6 kg (13 pounds), be older than 8 weeks and
younger than 6 months, and have had all of their vaccinations. If you’re traveling
with a pet that doesn’t meet these requirements, you will need to check it as
cargo.
If you choose to bring your pet in the cabin, there is an
additional charge per flight segment. The fee is determined based on the weight
of your pet and its distance from your final destination. Please note: The
maximum fee per flight segment is $250 USD. If your animal exceeds this amount,
you will need to check it as cargo instead of bringing them on board with you.
If you wish to bring more than one animal into the cabin at
one time, there is a $50 USD fee for each additional animal.
Pets can travel in the cabin or as cargo, depending on
their size and weight. If you're looking to bring your pet with you on your
next trip, here are some tips for making sure everyone stays safe:
- Your pet must be at least 8 weeks old.
- Your pet must weigh less than 8 kilos (17 pounds).
- You cannot bring more than one dog per cabin seat.
- You cannot bring more than two cats per cabin seat.
Emirates
Airlines Pets in Checked Baggage
raveling with your pet is just as easy and convenient when
you fly Emirates Airlines. We have a wide range of options for the comfort and
safety of your pet, from which type of kennel to use to how much food and water
should be provided.
When you're moving through the airport, you will need to
keep your pet's kennel with you at all times. You'll have plenty of time to
play after check-in!
If you're traveling with more than one pet, then each
animal must travel in a separate kennel. Each kennel should not exceed 70 cm x
60 cm x 90 cm (27.5 in x 24 in x 35 in). If they do, they will need to be
shipped as cargo instead.
The following
guidelines apply:
- Pets must be transported in an approved hard-sided kennel that
can be carried by hand.
- Pet kennels must have a leak-proof bottom and secure enough to
prevent the animal from escaping. The kennel must also have a handle on
top of it to make it easier to transport throughout the airport, and a
strong, sturdy door that can only be opened from the outside so that the animal
cannot escape.
- The animal will need to arrive at least 48 hours prior to
departure time so that it can go through quarantine and inspection
processes. All pets entering Dubai International Airport will undergo an
eight-hour quarantine period before being released into their owner's
care.
- If an owner is unable to pick up their pet directly at the
airport, arrangements should be made with Emirates Airlines prior to
arrival so that someone else can pick up the animal instead (i.e., a
friend or family member).
