At Basra Airline, we understand that pets are part of the family. To ensure their safety and your peace of mind, we offer clear guidelines and options for traveling with your furry companions.

General Regulations

  • Passengers must notify us during the booking process if they plan to travel with a pet.
  • Only small pets such as cats and dogs are allowed, and they must be transported in an airline-approved pet carrier.
  • Pets must be at least 10 weeks old and in good health to travel.

In-Cabin Travel

  • Small pets (up to 8 kg including the carrier) may travel in the cabin under the seat in front of you.
  • The maximum dimensions for the pet carrier are 40 x 30 x 24 cm. The pet must remain inside the carrier throughout the flight.
  • Only a limited number of pets are allowed in the cabin per flight, so early reservation is recommended.

Checked Baggage (Cargo Hold)

  • Pets exceeding the in-cabin weight or size limits may travel in the aircraft’s pressurized and temperature-controlled cargo hold.
  • Approved hard-shell pet containers must be used for this option.

Important Notes

  • Passengers are responsible for all necessary health certificates, vaccination records, and travel documents required by the destination country.
  • Certain breeds or animals may be restricted due to safety or health concerns.
  • Pets showing signs of illness or aggression will not be accepted.
