RELOCATION OF YOUR ANIMAL AS CARRY-ON OR CHECKED BAGGAGE
The travel circumstances of your pet mostly depend on his height, his weight and the destination country. Some countries approve the transportation of live animal in the hold only.
For a travel in the hold, your pet need to be in an IATA (International Air Transport Association) approved cage. Your animal must be able to turn around, lie down and stand up in the cage. The access to the plane can be denied if there is not enough space in the cage.
Check out our cage guide to choose the right IATA cage for your pet to travel to Netherlands.
Please, keep in mind that if your pet doesn’t travel with you, he will always be placed in an area with suitable light and temperature prepared for live animals.
