Pet Reservations
Only a certain number of pets are allowed on each flight, so be sure to contact the Customer Service Team at (+371) 6700-6006 as early as possible. If the number of pets exceeds the quota on a particular flight, or if the aircraft configuration does not allow for animal transportation, the airline can refuse transportation.
Pets in the Cabin
airBaltic welcomes small cats and dogs in the cabin, as long as the combined weight of the pet and carrier is under 17 lbs (8 kg). Each passenger may bring 1 carrier into the cabin, with up to 2 pets of the same species inside, but weight restrictions still apply. Pets traveling in the cabin are charged a fee of 70 EUR for each direction of travel.
Pets in Checked Baggage
Pets who exceed the maximum weight restrictions in the cabin can travel in the hold instead. Pets traveling in the hold must weigh less than 165 lbs (75 kg). A maximum of 3 young animals (up to 6 months old) of the same species are allowed in 1 carrier. 1 passenger is permitted to transport 5 pets as cargo on airBaltic flights. Fees for this service depend on the size of your pets. Pets and carriers that weigh between 17-70 lbs (8-32 kg) are charged 100 EUR per direction; 70-165 lbs (32-75 kg) will be charged 200 EUR per direction.
Pets in Cargo
All animals that exceed the weight of 165 lbs (75 kg) can be shipped with airBaltic Cargo instead. Contact one of the Handling Agents based in Latvia at (+371) 6-720-7861, or via email at info@airkargo.lv, for more information on shipping Fido as cargo.
