Traveling with an animal

Do you want to travel with your pet? Plan their trip carefully to ensure their safety and well-being throughout the journey. 

Before booking a flight with your pet, check with the airline you will be travelling with to find out about acceptance conditions, permitted dimensions and containers, fares and formalities. 

From Caen-Carpiquet, refer to the information from the companies : Air France or Volotea.

In the cabin – soft bag required 

Important : Since November 6, 2017, Air France and Volotea have prohibited rigid carriers for animals traveling in the cabin (PETC). Use a soft carrier that complies with your airline's regulations.  

Small pet carrier bag, recommended by the airport

Give your pet maximum comfort while complying with airline regulations with this cabin-sized carrier. It features two openings, one at the front and one at the top. You can find several carriers online that meet the requirements of Air France and Volotea.

Dimensions: L.42 x H.30 x D.20cm.

Good to know : Guide dogs accompanying people with disabilities benefit from special conditions and can access areas usually prohibited to animals.

Veterinary formalities 

Also consider the veterinary formalities depending on your destination (European passport, vaccinations, country's import rules). 

The animal's vaccination record is mandatory and must be up to date.
