Enquiry about travelling with pets
Do you want to take your four-legged friend on board? Please note: rodents are not allowed on board. Please note that this service is only available on flights operated by Austrian Airlines (three-digit OS flight numbers). We would be happy to help you.
The safety and well-being of your pet during carriage in the aircraft is very important to us. We therefore ask that you read carefully through the information on our “Travelling with animals” page.
Important information for travel to the USA:
Since 1.8.2024 new restrictions have been in force by the US health authority Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, CDC. As a result, the entry regulations for dogs into the USA are changing:
- New bookings for dogs to the USA are only accepted for the airports in Washington DC, New York (JFK), Atlanta, Miami, Los Angeles and Philadelphia.
- Only dogs that are at least 6 months old are accepted on trips to the USA.
- In addition, please complete the CDC Dog Import Form.
- You must present the confirmation from the American authorities in digital or printed form when entering and departing the country.
If you do not fulfil the CDC requirements, you will be denied carriage.
- Pregnant animals are generally not accepted in the cabin.
