Does my pet qualify for travel in the passenger cabin?
The animal must be kept in a secure, suitable travel container, to be provided by the passenger. As the total number of animals per flight is limited, the airline must be notified in advance and permission/confirmation obtained. Animals traveling in the cabin must be kept in a suitable pet travel bag, both flexible and waterproof. The animal's head must not protrude from the travel bag. The animal must remain within the container throughout the flight. The container may not, at any time be placed on the seat even if an extra seat is purchased. Guide dogs may travel in the cabin without a container.
