Scandinavian Airlines Pet Travel
SAS' pet policy
SAS Airlines pet policy updated as of 23 January 2025 offers various options for passengers traveling with pets, ensuring a smooth journey for you and your furry companion. Whether you're flying domestically or internationally, SAS pet policy caters to pets in the cabin or as checked baggage, depending on their size and weight.
Traveling with Pets in the Cabin
Under the SAS pet travel guidelines, small dogs and cats can travel in the cabin, provided their combined weight with the carrier does not exceed 8 kg (17.6 lbs). The pet must remain in an airline-approved carrier placed under the seat in front of you during the flight.
Pets as Checked Baggage
For larger pets, SAS Airlines' pet policy allows them to travel as checked baggage in a pressurized and temperature-controlled compartment. Ensure the pet crate meets IATA standards to guarantee your pet's safety and comfort throughout the journey.
