In-Cabin Pet Policy Of Air Canada

On many of our trips, we don’t wish to leave our pets behind. If you are planning on taking an Air Canada flight with your furry friend, there are a few guidelines you should familiarize yourself with before you make the booking. Here’s what you need to know.

According to Air Canada’s pet policy inside the cabin, the passengers are allowed to bring onboard cats and small dogs. The pet must be small enough to be comfortable inside its carrier and should be able to move freely inside it. The pet carrier will be placed under the seat in front of the passenger. All of the above-stated information is applicable to flights that are operated by either Air Canada or Air Rouge and Air Canada Express flights operated by Jazz.

If you are traveling with a pet on an Air Canada flight, the pet itself will be counted as one item on your carry-on baggage allowance. There are also certain restrictions as to who cannot travel with a pet with Air Canada. You will not be allowed to travel with your pet if,

You are in need of using a medical device that has to be placed under the seat in front of you.

You are an unaccompanied minor.

You will be flying in the business class cabin of our Boeing 737 MAX 8 (7M8) aircraft.

You will be sitting in the exit or bulkhead row.

The passenger is flying in Air Canada’s Premium Economy cabin. The layout of Premium Economy seats isn’t safe for placing pet carriers under the seats.
Talking about the costs for pet travel, for a one-way trip within Canada and Canada/U.S. (except Hawaii) charges are between $50.00 — $59.00 CAD/USD. If you wish to travel on an international flight with your pet, the charges will be around $100.00 — $118.00 CAD/USD.

A few other important points to be noted:

The minimum age requirement for the pet is 12 weeks old.

The pet should be fully weaned.

The pet must remain inside the carrier throughout the flight’s duration.

Arrive 30 minutes prior to the check-in time for seeing the agent for check-in.
