About this guide ↓
This guide was generated by Pawgo's AI using verified data from official sources. Jules is a fictional persona — the data is real.
Okay, listen up: Airlink does NOT take dogs in the cabin, so if you were picturing your pup at your feet the whole flight, reset that dream right now. Nala would have opinions about layovers, but on Airlink she'd ride in the hold instead. Good news is the hold option is real and workable. Let's get you and your adventure buddy sorted the smart way.
Airlink's pet policy splits into cabin and cargo. This page summarizes the weight limits, fees, brachycephalic-breed restrictions, and carrier specifications for both modes — sourced from the airline's official pet pages.

Airlink requires domestic pet carriage to be booked no later than 72 hours before departure. Contact the Airlink Reservations Support desk directly to secure the booking. Approval is not automatic, so submit the request far inside that 72-hour window. Waiting past the cutoff forfeits the hold slot entirely. Confirm the booking is approved before finalizing any travel dates around it.
Frequently asked
How much does it cost to fly a pet on Airlink?
On flights within Metropolitan France, Airlink charges from 38 in the hold, one way per pet. Longer routes cost more — price your exact itinerary.
What if my flight is delayed past my health certificate validity?
If the certificate window expires before you board, you'll need a re-issue. Build a 1-2 day buffer between the cert date and departure to absorb minor delays.
What happens if I forget a document?
At the destination airport: at best, an extended inspection while you produce backup; at worst, the pet is held in quarantine or returned to origin at your cost. Bring printed copies.
So there it is: hold travel is your path on Airlink, and that 72-hour booking window is non-negotiable. Sam and I always lock this stuff in early so trip day is pure fun, not panic.
