International Pet Flight FAQs
Essential knowledge before booking your pet's airline ticket.
Can small pets fly inside the passenger cabin?
Most international airlines allow dogs and cats under 8 kg (18 lbs) including their soft-sided carrier to fly in-cabin under the seat in front of you. Notable exceptions: flights into the UK, Australia, and certain Middle Eastern carriers require all pets to arrive via manifest cargo.
Why are snub-nosed (brachycephalic) breeds restricted on flights?
Breeds like French Bulldogs, Pugs, Boston Terriers, and Persian cats have compressed airways that can lead to severe heat stroke and oxygen deprivation during warm weather or in cargo holds. Many international airlines enforce strict embargoes on these breeds.
What is an electronic pet passport and is it accepted?
An electronic passport (like MyFurPet) organizes your pet's microchip record, vaccine lot numbers, veterinarian signatures, and official travel clearance in one mobile app. It provides instant visual confirmation for gate agents and includes a 1-page printable PDF health certificate.
