Corsair International carries dogs and cats in the cabin up to 8 kg and in the hold up to 50 kg. The service is paid: 75 EUR per flight. The pet's place is booked in advance — at least 72 h before departure.
Snub-nosed breeds are not accepted in the hold. A separate breed ban applies to 5 breeds. Direct flights reach 9 countries, but flying there and taking a pet are different questions: the destination country has its own entry rules.
A personal plan combines the airline's rules with the destination's
The conditions that send people back to the ticket desk: closed destinations, breeds, heat limits and how early the pet must be booked.
A full ban on all flights and in all channels (cabin, hold, freight) applies to French category 1 dogs, that is dogs without a pedigree: American Staffordshire of 'Pitbull type', Tosa, Mastiff type and Boerboel. Category 2 dogs (with LOF pedigree) are accepted under strict conditions — proof of breed, third-party liability insurance, a valid keeping permit, an adult owner; in the cabin only if the total weight with the carrier is under 8 kg. Category 2 names the Bullmastiff, Bull Terrier, Cane Corso, Great Dane, Dogo Argentino, Dogue de Bordeaux, Fila Brasileiro, Fila de São Miguel, Neapolitan Mastiff and Presa Canario. That is why only the Pit Bull and the Boerboel are in the field: the generic 'Mastiff' in category 1 means an unpedigreed dog of mastiff type, while the same page permits pedigreed mastiffs — and the schema has no marker for 'banned unless pedigreed'. Snub-nosed breeds are not accepted in the hold: dogs — Affenpinscher, Boston Terrier, Boxers (all breeds), Bulldogs (all breeds), Bullmastiff, Cane Corso, Pugs (all breeds), Chow Chow, Danes (all breeds), certain spaniels (Tibetan, Japanese, English Toy, King Charles), Brussels Griffon, Lhasa Apso, Mastiffs (all breeds), Neapolitan Mastiff, Pekingese, Petit Brabançon, Shih Tzu, Shar Pei, Staffordshire Bull Terrier; cats — Birman, Exotic, British Shorthair, Himalayan, Persian, Scottish Fold.
Corsair International flies direct to 9 countries according to the schedules. Flying there is not the same as taking a pet: the destination country has its own entry rules, and the carrier itself closes some routes to animals.
