Pet travel options
In the cabin
Generally up to 8 kg (17.6 lb), including carrier, on eligible routes; verify current cabin carrier dimensions directly.
Checked pet / accompanied hold
Dogs and cats over 8 kg and up to 75 kg (165 lb) including crate may travel in the hold, subject to flight acceptance.
Air cargo (separate shipment)
Separate cargo arrangements may be required for animals not eligible as accompanied baggage.
Booking and reservations
Add the pet to your booking in advance; Air France states at least 24 hours before departure for hold transport.
Before you book
Confirm the operating carrier on every segment, aircraft and cabin class, carrier or crate dimensions, pet space availability, any breed or temperature embargoes, the total cost, and the destination's import requirements. Assistance animals follow different rules.
