Fees for transporting pets on international flights

Pet fees are calculated according to the weight of the pet together with its crate. The first category of fees is “Pet Carried in Cabin (PETC)” for pets 0-8 kg while the second fee schedule is for “Pet Carried in Cargo Compartment (AVIH)” which is categorised into three weight categories; small: 0-23 kg, medium: 24-32 kg, and large: 33 kg and over.

Fees for carrying pets on international flights may vary depending on the travel destination. Please visit the Pet Transportation Fee Calculator page to calculate the fee you will pay.

Pet fees are charged per crate. For instance, if a passenger is travelling with two cats in a crate, the fee is charged only per crate, not per cat.

Fees Charged for Pets Transported in the Cabin and Cargo Compartment (PETC/AVIH):

When the pet is weighed together with the crate: If the weight is in the range of 0-8KG, the pet is considered PETC (Pet in Cabin) and travels with the passenger in the cabin.

A pet and a crate that together weigh more than 8KG are considered AVIH (Animal on Hold) and must travel under the aircraft.

A pet and a crate that together weigh in the range of 0-8KG and that must be transported under the aircraft due to transportation rules are also accepted as AVIH, and they are charged as AVIH.

Pet charges are charged per crate. If a passenger is travelling with two cats in one crate, there is only a per crate charge, not per cat.


Pet Fee Pricing for Stopover Flights:

If there is a Stopover at any point in the journey, the charge is calculated separately up to the point where the Stopover is made, and after the Stopover until the destination. The amount to be charged is the sum of the two.

When making separate calculations, each trip is evaluated in its own category and calculated according to the PETC/AVIH tables in the publication.

Example 1; For an animal which will be carried in cabin compartment (PETC) between FRA and JFK with stopover is calculeted as follows: FRA-IST : according to the TR↔Group A (65 USD). IST-JFK : according to the TR↔Group C (185 USD). The total fare to be charged is the sum of the two separate journeys (65 USD + 185 USD=250 USD).

Example 2; For an animal which will be carried in cargo compartment (AVIH) between FRA and JFK with stopover is calculeted as follows: FRA-IST : according to the weight categories (0-23KG: 130 USD, 24-32KG: 150 USD, 33KG+: 190 USD) IST-JFK : according to the weight categories (0-23KG: 370 USD, 24-32KG: 440 USD, 33KG+: 550 USD). The total fare to be charged is the sum of the two separate journeys (0-23KG: 500 USD, 24-32KG: 590 USD, 33KG+: 740 USD).
