What are the restrictions on traveling with pets on British Airways flights?

Asked a year ago
British Airways has guidelines and restrictions in place for traveling with pets on their flights. Only dogs and cats are allowed, with some specific breeds restricted for safety concerns. Pets must be at least 10 weeks old for domestic travel and 15 weeks old for international travel. They should travel in an approved pet carrier that meets the airline's requirements and be kept in the cabin, as no pets are allowed in the cargo hold. The carrier dimensions must not exceed 45cm x 30cm x 25cm (18in x 12in x 10in). Prior reservation for pets is necessary and limited quota per flight applies. Additional charges are applicable for pet travel, varying based on the destination. All pets must comply with the necessary health and documentation requirements. For further details, customers are advised to refer to the British Airways website or consult their customer service representatives.
