Can I travel with my pet?

Yes, you can travel with your pet on most of our flights.

The following animals are allowed on board:

• Cats and dogs can be carried either in the cabin or the aircraft hold. Only very small cats and dogs that can stand straight, sit, turn around and lie down in a closed carrier placed under the seat can travel in the cabin. Other cats and dogs must travel in the hold.
• Pet rabbits, tortoises and hedgehogs can be carried in the cabin or the aircraft hold when the journey starts from an EU country.
• Ferrets can be carried only in the aircraft hold.

The exact requirements depend on factors such as weight and size, country regulations and the operating airline. When travelling to or via certain countries, you can only ship pets as cargo, meaning that your pet will not be travelling with you.

Please find full details on our Pets on Finnair flights page.

Animal species not listed above are not permitted onboard and must be shipped as cargo.
