Pet transportation

General Information

Bees Airlines has specific guidelines for traveling with pets. In the passenger cabin, we only accept cats, dogs, or birds. Checked baggage can only include cats and dogs. To bring your pet on board, please notify us at least 48 hours before departure since there's a limit to the number of pets we can accommodate.

Pets must be accompanied by an adult, and live animal transportation is subject to the regulations of the relevant state authorities in the country of export, import, or transit. Bees Airlines is not responsible for any issues related to the export, import, or transit of your pet.

Please note that certain dangerous dog breeds, such as American Pit-bull Terrier, American Staffordshire Terrier, Bull Terrier, and others, are not allowed for carriage by Bees Airlines. Additionally, pets with flattened muzzles are not accepted in the baggage compartment due to potential breathing difficulties caused by stress and high temperatures during travel. However, these pets can still be carried in the passenger cabin, subject to specific conditions.

To transport your pet, you'll need:

  • International pet passport.

  • Valid pet health certificate.

  • Vaccination certificate.

  • Electronic identification transponder (microchip).

  • Other documents required by the country's sanitary and quarantine rules.

Please check the live animal transportation rules and regulations for the specific countries you are traveling to or through.

Please be aware that transporting animals to the United Arab Emirates in luggage or hand luggage is prohibited, except for service animals with a transport permit obtained in advance. Learn more
