Are you traveling with pets?

You are welcome to bring your cat or dog with you in the cabin on our flights provided you make a reservation and obtain authorization in advance, because the number of pets accepted in the cabin and in the cargo hold of a flight is limited. Please note: animals other than cats and dogs are welcome to fly with us in the cargo hold only.

When flying to/from UK or Ireland, you are not allowed to transport your cat or dog either in the cabin nor as checked baggage. For information on pet transport from the UK please call SAS Cargo UK +44 (0) 208 917 1304 or 0208 917 1305 ; from Ireland please call Airline Cargo Services +353 1 8447402 . It would assist our staff if you have the size of the box you intend to use in giving you an estimate of costs involved.  SAS in the UK only allow cargo transportation of live animals on week-day flights that depart before 1300hrs; it's advisable for passengers who intend travelling with their pets to book the cargo space first before booking their own passenger flights.

If you fly to Dubai, pets are only accepted as Cargo. From Dubai cats and dogs can be exported as checked baggage.
