How to fly with Dog In Cabin (Non-ESA)| International Flight with transit | KLM TPE ~ AMS ~MAD

[@gurple9319]

The dog is really sleepy she’s falling asleep as you speak😂

Thanks for your video, was very helpful. I have a Shihtzu, he traveled with me by Lufthansa, that has a bigger space, but now I need to travel with KLM

[@RenataFelixVideos]

How was your experience with KLM? I just bought the flight and I'm traveling with my dog as well. My dog is 3.8kg.

How much did it cost you?

I just doubled checked and it was 125 EURO at the time of the travel

I love that your pup is trained to pee on the piddle pad❣️ What a lifesaver that was! I will be flying with a cat. Cats are very particular about using the bathroom in unfamiliar places. I have a fold-up litter box packed as well as a zip-lock bag of fresh kitty litter.....and hopefully we can find unoccupied “family” restrooms in the airports so I can lock the door and let him out to potty.

[@travelingpotatoes1172]

good idea! Hope it works

would like to connect with you, I am traveling with my 2 cats and would love to take some advice from you.

Thank you so much for this video!! I'm planning on moving from Brazil to Indonesia with my cat and from research KLM seems like the best option as well. Thank you for all the information!

[@renatabaumanncorrea4012]

Hey Esther! Don't know if you already traveled with your cat from Brazil to Indonesia, if so how was the experience? Did your cat got too much stressed with the flight? Was he/she already used to go out? I'm planning in going with mine from Brazil to Norway with KLM but I'm worried it might be too much stressfull.

[@esthermirandalima]

@@renatabaumanncorrea4012 hi! I ended up not taking my cat there, but I would definitely do it through KLM. I thought of spending a few days in amsterdam before continuing flying but idk if it would just stress him more.

[@zubinelav]

This is so useful, thank you. And congrats for the training, very impressive! I have a question: have you got checked for the weigh? In your experience, how flexible are companies about the 8kg policy? Thanks so much!

Hi how old is your toy poodle when you travelled. My 2 year old toy poodle is travelling with us in a week from Manila to Toronto via Incheon.

[@daniellecruz2961]

hi! how’d it go?

[@musicash15guys]

Thank you for this! Sorry if I missed it but did the airline check if your dog could stand up in the bag? My dog can definitely lie comfortably in his but can’t stand/sit upright as airlines supposedly require.

[@travelingpotatoes1172]

Ashley Simms they don’t really check if they can stand! I was super worry too! But I confirmed with someone who has help people travel with their pets and confirmed me that all airlines care is the weight and bag size. Obviously your dog can’t look crammed into the bag either . Hope it helps!

[@musicash15guys]

Traveling Potatoes thanks :) I flew a few weeks ago and you’re right, they didn’t check. I read horror stories online and wasn’t sure if airlines would be super strict or laid back since not many ppl were flying. My experience was definitely the latter...the airlines never weighed or looked at my dog or his carrier (which was technically too big). They also didn’t ask for the health certificate they told me was required and upon landing in Canada they never did the physical inspection or charge me the import fee! You would definitely want to have everything needed and more but it was a lot easier than I thought!

[@MaestraJager]

@@travelingpotatoes1172 Do they measure the bag? To my understanding the required measurements are the following 46 x 28 x 24 cm (L x W x H). Im worried if they measure the bag at the airport? I understand if they weight it but im worried if they measure it as I cannot find a bag under 24cms in height, All I can find is bags of 29 cms :/

[@travelingpotatoes1172]

@@MaestraJager the bags you’ll have to be more careful just like any carry on luggage some airlines are more strict than others. I wouldn’t risk to be rejected. I also had a super hard time finding a bag, best of lucks!

Hi! Were all your flights under KLM including TPE to Ams? I was told by KLM that if there's another airline operating for my transit, I would have to take approval from them as well.

[@randolphreforma]

Hello, we're thinking of flying with KLM as well from Dubai to Canada, can you let me know how Coffee is, and the dimensions of your soft carrier. It would really help, thanks!

[@travelingpotatoes1172]

Coffee is doing really well loving her home. Her carrier was sized 40.5 x 25.5 x 25.5 (cm). It fitted perfectly under Air France and KLM flights. Safe travels!

Hey :) We are travelling with our dog for the first time in about 4 weeks and we have been looking at travel bags all over the place and can't find the right one. Can you share what brand you have used on your flight ? We like the look of it but any similar ones I am looking at on Amazon are higher than 24cm. We are also flying with KLM so trying to find the right fit. Thank you so much.

Hi there! This video is so helpful. I’m so happy to see about 12-13 hour long flights as we are planning to bring our pup Singapore to Germany. Was she able to potty right before boarding time? And if so, did you also have to make her wee on pads in the airport toilets? Considering the flight was 12 hours, the total time is pretty much 14 if you consider waiting to depart and board etc..

[@travelingpotatoes1172]

Glad you found it helpful! She pee on her pad once at the airport and once on the airplane. It was not easy but with patience they will do it. Is important to keep them hydrated even if bathroom will. be hard. Hope this helps!

Coffee is around 30cm (leg to back) hope it helps!

[@emiliosilva6447]

I wish you could reply this message I'm about to book a flight with my cat in cabin, klm told me the carrier must be 24cm or less and the cats head doesn't have to touch the top of the carrier which I think is impossible unless you're taking a chihuahua, but I see in your video your dog is taller than 24cm. Counter staff didn't have a problem with this requirement in your flight?

[@stephaniev7382]

How tall is Coffee? We want to get a dog and now is a puppy, but the parents are like mom 5 kg (26 cm) and papa 6 kg (32 cm) . I know some airlines ask to be only 23 cm tall carry bag and the dog needs to be able to stand... we are confused 😅

[@ethelmoniquedomingo1710]

Hi Did they measure your cat's carrier?

[@travelingpotatoes1172]

I was lucky they didn't only weigh. The height is more important than the length because some seats hight are so low the bag won't fit. So go safe! 9" (23cm) x 15.5" (40cm) amzn.to/3svItC3

[@hwbi]

thanks for the video! what is the size of your carrier? as you mentioned, klm seats require a height of 24 cm, which is lower than other airlines; how did you meet that requirement? i'm looking at a similar carrier but the closest i could find was 28cm; would one be able to squeeze the bag in?

[@travelingpotatoes1172]

The bag I had fit the requirement, left link on the description. Most carrier bags are made with solid frame so I don't think you would be able to squeeze 4cm. Best of luck!

@@backyard_cats I’m sorry, we has made a mistake will we was doing the check in, and the host didn’t pay attention on it at the moments, when she has notice it it was too late, we finally got the flight with air France , and they didn’t check the size of the bag , they didn’t care at all, Air France and klm are the same group so I think that should work

Thank you for not applying your pet for emotional support animal. That was meant for legitimate ESAs to ride with their handler who had legitimate fears during flights. But people abused the system. Your not one of those. I’m grateful, thank you. It’s better to spend the money than to be called out for that.

[@kevinhealey6540]

Won't fly KLM again. They allow small dogs to come on the plane with the owner. On a flight from NYC to Amsterdam, the dog kept barking until it was allowed the owner let the dog out of the container. The dog did not stop actually. Every once in a while he'd let out a yelp, which would wake people who were trying to sleep.

[@LS-id5hc]

Oh well it's nice how kind and understanding you are.
