If your intention is not to leave your colleague on the ground, you should know that there are airlines that do not accept animals , such as the low cost EasyJet and Ryanair (except duly registered guide dogs). Also that there are certain breeds of dogs and cats called brachiocephalic breeds (with snub noses) to which flying poses a high risk of suffering from respiratory problems and heat due to stress and high temperatures of flight. Brachycephalic dogs include: Boston Terrier, Boxer, Brussels Griffon, Chinese Pug, Chow Chow, Dutch Pug, English Bulldog, English Toy Spaniel, French Bulldog, Valley Bulldog, Dogue de Bordeaux, Lhasa Apso, Japanese Spaniel (Chin), Pekingese , Pug, Shar-Pei, Shih-Tzu and Tibetan Spaniel. Brachiocephalic cats are: the Burmese, exotic cat, Himalayan, Persian and British shorthair.
In addition, pets will be duly vaccinated , identified with a microhip , with their papers in order, in approved carriers and, if traveling in the cabin, they will not be allowed to bother any passenger, it is your responsibility to take care of it.
To ensure your pet’s place, we recommend you notify the airline in advance . There are cases in which dogs must travel with a muzzle.
You can take the animal with you in the cabin as long as it does not exceed 8 kg in weight, including its carrier or transport bag and with prior authorization from the Reservations Office. The measurements of the container must not exceed 45 cm long, 35 cm wide and 25 cm high and the sum of all of them cannot be greater than 105 cm. The pet carrier must be consistent, ventilated, with a waterproof and secure bottom and the animal must remain in it throughout the flight without disturbing the other passengers.
In the case where you fly with birds, make sure that the cage is sturdy, the lock is secure and that food or drink cannot be spilled. In addition, the cage will have to be covered. Regarding rates, Iberia will apply an extra € 35 per journey for pets in the cabin if traveling within Spain, € 50 if the destination is Europe, Africa or the Middle East and € 150 if traveling to America and Asia.
The airline allows you to travel with dogs, cats, turtles and birds, but not with animals of the mustelidae family such as ferrets or martens . It also does not allow traveling with brachiocephalic animals in the hold . The charges per journey for traveling in the winery are € 80 if you go to Spain, € 120 if you go to the Canary Islands, Europe, North Africa and the Middle East and € 300 if the route is to America or Asia.
Air Europa allows cats, birds (except birds of prey), fish, aquarium turtles and some rodents such as hamsters, guinea pigs or small rabbits to travel in the cabin as long as they do so inside an approved container with ventilation that does not exceed 55 cm x 35 cm x 25 cm and that the weight of the pet and the carrier does not exceed 8 kg. The supplement for flying in the cabin will be € 25 if you travel to the Peninsula, the Balearic Islands and the Canary Islands; € 50 if going to Europe or Africa and € 150 if it is a long-distance trip.
Both cats and brachiocephalic dogs will be able to travel on a Spanair plane if they do not exceed 8 kilos in weight. They will go in the cabin.
Amphibians, insects, crustaceans, reptiles (except aquarium turtles), rodents (except hamsters, guinea pigs and small rabbits), ferrets and some breeds of dogs will have to go in the cellar. And, of course, dogs and cats that exceed 8 kg with the carrier. For flying in the winery, an extra € 90 will be charged if you travel to the Peninsula and the Balearic Islands; € 100 if you go to the Canary Islands, Europe or Africa and € 240 on long-haul flights.
For security reasons, the airline does not allow animals to be transported in the hold on flights with a stopover in Madrid from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m., for flights departing between June 15 and September 15 (both included).
This airline only allows you to bring your pet on board with you. Dogs, cats, non-predatory birds, fish and turtles are accepted. Not allowed: rodents, rabbits, ferrets, farm animals, birds of prey and reptiles. The animal must travel inside an approved carrier that is not rigid with a maximum size of 45 cm x 39 cm x 21 cm and the total weight of the pet and transport container will be 8 kg. You will have to carry your colleague on the floor between your legs or under your seat. Vueling will apply a rate of € 40 for national journeys and € 50 for international journeys and the Canary Islands. On flights to or from the United Kingdom and Ireland you will not be able to take your pet .
