Himalaya Airlines Pet Policy

Himalaya Airlines welcomes pets on board their flights, allowing passengers to travel with their furry companions. Here is everything you need to know about Himalaya Airlines' pet policy.

1. Cabin Pet Policy: Himalaya Airlines allows small dogs and cats to travel in the cabin with their owners. The maximum weight limit for pets in the cabin is 8 kilograms (17.6 pounds), including the weight of the carrier. Only one pet per passenger is permitted in the cabin, and advanced reservation is required.

2. Checked Pet Policy: Unfortunately, Himalaya Airlines does not currently offer the option to transport pets in the cargo hold as checked baggage. Therefore, if you are planning to travel with your pet, they must be small enough to fit in a carrier that can be placed under the seat in front of you.

3. Health and Documentation: Before traveling with your pet on Himalaya Airlines, it is important to ensure that your pet is in good health and has all the necessary vaccinations. You may be required to provide a health certificate issued by a licensed veterinarian, stating that your pet is fit to travel. Additionally, make sure to check the specific entry requirements of your destination, as some countries may have additional documentation requirements for pets.

4. Pet Carrier Requirements: If you are traveling with your pet in the cabin, the carrier must be leak-proof, well-ventilated, and secure. It should be small enough to fit under the seat in front of you. The dimensions of the carrier should not exceed 55 cm x 40 cm x 20 cm (21.6 in x 15.7 in x 7.8 in).

5. Fees: Himalaya Airlines charges a fee for traveling with pets in the cabin. The fee may vary depending on the route and destination. It is recommended to contact the airline directly or visit their website for the most up-to-date information regarding pet fees.

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.
