Compassionate Handling of Live Animals

Dog

At SAS Cargo, we care deeply about the well-being of every animal entrusted to our care. Our dedicated team ensures safe and efficient transportation to numerous destinations within our network.

If you need to transport an animal as air cargo, our Customer Support teams in Scandinavia & Europe, USA and Asia are ready to help you find an available flight. Unfortunately, we cannot accept animals on all flights since some types of cargo are incompatible with transport of live animals.

In order to transport your pet as air cargo you need to contact a specialized freight forwarder with knowledge and expertise in transporting pets. 

Whether it's cats, dogs or agricultural livestock, we're here to guide you through the process, providing support every step of the way. Please note that we cannot evaluate requests for pets until 14 days before departure. 

Rest assured that SAS Cargo adheres to all international regulations set forth by the International Air Transport Association (IATA) for the transportation of live animals. It's crucial that you have all necessary documents in order, ensuring compliance with these regulations.

SAS Cargo maintains the highest standards for animals in our care and follow guidelines set forth by local government agencies.

For detailed information on acceptance, handling, and loading procedures, refer to the IATA Live Animals Regulations (LAR).
