In-Cabin Pet Policy
If your dog, cat, bird (except birds of prey), fish, aquarium turtle, hamsters, guinea pigs or small rabbit meet the requirements listed in Air Europa pet policy to travel in-cabin, you will need an airline-compliant pet carrier.

Checked Baggage Pet Policy
If your pet is too large to fit under the seat, it is an animal other than a dog or cat, or if it is a very long flight, Air Euruopa may transport your pet in the cargo section of their aircraft according to its regulations. This section of the cargo department has the same temperature and pressure as the passenger cabin. TIP: Be sure to tell the Captain of the aircraft that your pet is flying in the cargo hold so that they can be sure to keep the temperature at the proper level.
