FAQs for Pets Travelling with Qantas Airways
Can My Pet Fly in the Cabin With Qantas?
No. All pets are required to be in airline approved IATA crates for their domestic travel across Australia, with the exception of service dogs that will require special permission directly from the airline. For more information visit the Qantas Airways Travelling with a guide, assistance or hearing dog page.
Which Dog Breeds Can’t Fly with Qantas?
Qantas does have policies in place in relation to specific breeds not being able to travel and these include:-
- Pit Bull and American Pit Bull Terriers
- Dogo Argentino
- Japanese Tosa
- Brazilian Fila and Mastiff
- Presa Canario
American Staffordshire Terriers (full or cross breed) must be transported in a CR-82 reinforced cage or an airline approved guard dog cage before flying. Dogs travelling with military or correctional facilities officers are considered working dogs and therefore must also travel in an airline approved guard dog cage.
Will I Need a Veterinary Certificate for My Pet to Fly with Qantas Airways?
All pets need to be at least 12 weeks old before they are able to fly and for pets older than 12 years will need a vet certificate stating your pet is healthy enough to fly. Speak to our pet consultants who can assist you through this process.
What Happens if My Pet’s Qantas Flight is Delayed, or Cancelled?
When booking your flights through Jetpets, we will ensure that we are in communication with you where Qantas notifies us of any delays or cancelations.
