[@shalinibawa]

Are they really checking the size of the carry bag at the time of checking..
I am struggling to find the bag that fits there discriptions

[@WylieWestie]

But the government website still states that pets are only allowed to enter UAE as manifest cargo due to IATA rules 😵‍💫

[@mynodelic]

do you have more info about this?

[@BlasianPersuazion]

It’s 2023 and I’ve been told by a few airlines the same thing! But I’ve been told by people who actually flew recently that they were able to fly with their pet in cabin. I am so confused and frustrated!

etihad is an airline in abu dhabi not dubai?

[@logwhitley]

Must admit struggling with Etihad on this but I am traveling with a dog for the first time myself so the problem may be with me

[@keerthanakulla7739]

Hey.. how was ur experience travelling in Etihad with you pet?.. I would like to get few details about it please

[@logwhitley]

@@keerthanakulla7739 hi we don't travel until the beginning of October but the route we are using gets busy very early so we have had to start the process early. The under seat is quite space is small so we have had to book a seat for our dog. The process was a little complex as we had to book through their pet section, you can't phone them they phone you.

[@keerthanakulla7739]

How is the process? I’m planning to travel on October 2nd as well. How much did it cost? And how did you contact them?

[@keerthanakulla7739]

Can you please give few details and guide me?

[@logwhitley]

@@keerthanakulla7739 you have to go to their website find the pet page and fill your pets details in, the then will email/phone unfortunately you can't just contact them. I had to book a seat so for me €750, but your cost will depend on your flight
