The transport of pets in the hold of the aircraft will be allowed as long as the container for this purpose is suitable according to the size and weight of the animal.

For your pet to be transported in the hold of the aircraft, the carrier or container should meet the following requirements:

• It must be comfortable for the size of the animal, enabling it to stand, sit, lie down, and turn around comfortably.
• The container must be made of a solid resistant material, that guarantees its integrity and not getting damaged or broken during the transport of the animal. It must also allow a fixed container for water and feeding of the animal to be accommodated.
• It must contain ventilation holes of appropriate size which should allow a clear view of the animal´s condition, but without allowing it to expose any limb or any other part outside the container.
• The door must have a secure locking system to ensure that it remains closed at all times (It is not allowed to secure the cage with wires, padlocks, or packing tape).
• The container must not have surfaces which can be damaged by the animal biting or clawing from the inside. The corners of the container must be rounded and smooth.
• The floor of the container must be adequate to protect the animal from heat or cold, as well as it must be protected with absorbent materials (NON-TOXIC) for the retention of liquids and solids during transport.
