Lufthansa Airlines Pet Policy for flights to Europe


In-Cabin Pets:

Lufthansa allows small cats and dogs to travel in the cabin on most flights within Europe, provided that they are at least 12 weeks old and weigh no more than 8 kg (including the carrier). Passengers must make a reservation for their pet at least 24 hours in advance, and there is a fee for this service. The pet must remain in its carrier for the duration of the flight and must not obstruct the aisle or emergency exits.

Checked Pets:

Lufthansa also allows cats, dogs, and other animals to travel in the hold on flights within Europe. Passengers must make a reservation for their pet at least 24 hours in advance, and there is a fee for this service. Pets must be at least 12 weeks old and have all necessary vaccinations and health certificates. The carrier must meet certain size and ventilation requirements, and the pet must have enough space to stand up, lie down, and turn around comfortably.

Restricted Breeds:

Lufthansa may not transport certain breeds of dogs and other animals due to safety concerns. These breeds include, but are not limited to, American Staffordshire Terriers, Pit Bull Terriers, and Staffordshire Bull Terriers.
