Flydubai Pet Policy
If you are planning on traveling with your furry friend, it's important to familiarize yourself with Flydubai's pet policy. Keep in mind that air carriers can change these policies at any time, so you should always check directly with the airline you are traveling on, before you book, for the most accurate and up-to-date information.
Flydubai allows passengers to transport animals across all of their destinations. They offer special services for additional costs, such as door-to-door transportation and the option to book return flights for your pets and other animals. Flydubai also provides a dedicated facility for live animals and offers specialized animal care during transits in Dubai. Services include full physical check-ups, feeding, walking, and administering medicine. Pet cleaning is also available upon request.
For pets traveling as cargo, carriers must meet IATA-approved specifications. They must be hard-sided, leak and escape-proof, and have adequate ventilation. It's important that your pet can move freely inside and travel comfortably.
