We make boarding smooth for both passengers and pets. Here you find GlobeAir’s pet regulations and the associated costs.
Onboard rules
- Your pet is kept on a leash, wears a muzzle and travels fastened
- Your pet may be placed in a portable carry-on pet carrier, but that’s not mandatory
- Your pet weighs a maximum of 8 kg. All special requests are treated on a case by case basis
GlobeAir fees
If you travel with a pet, you may be charged additional costs depending on your landing airport in the UK. You can find an overview of the applied fares below. For flights scheduled anywhere else in Europe, there will be no additional costs. In both cases, the liability of damages to the aircraft lies with the passenger.
Country-specific requirements
Depending on how you travel and the country where you are heading to, you may be required to bring along your pet’s passport. As well as this, your pets should be on top of their vaccinations boosters. No matter if you travel commercial or private, there are some stringent requirements which regulate pet entries abroad: these apply to both commercial and private flights because they are specific to the country you are entering. As the UK regulates pet travel very strictly, you can find all the UK regulations below.
A general tip when travelling abroad with your pets: always inform yourself about your destination’s requirements before travelling.
UK pets requirements
The list below compiles five of the conditions that your pet should meet when entering the UK. If your pet doesn’t meet all the conditions, he/she will not be considered for entry under the Pet Travel Scheme (PETS) and therefore will need to undergo quarantine.
- Your pet is microchipped
- Your pet is vaccinated against rabies
- Your pet has received a blood test after the rabies vaccination
- Six months have passed after the blood test
- Your dog pets are treated for tick and Echinococcus (tapeworm). (The treatment must be administered by a veterinarian no less than 24 hours and no more than 48 hours before departure)
