About this guide ↓
This guide was generated by Pawgo's AI using verified data from official sources. Emma is a fictional persona — the data is real.
Here's the number that stopped me mid-scroll: this carrier lets dogs ride in the cabin, which is exactly the row I highlight yellow in my spreadsheet. Luna approves of anything that keeps her at seat level and off a cargo manifest. Before you book, though, know that cabin acceptance is only the first cell in a much longer table worth reading carefully.
NE_2'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.

The combined weight of the pet and its cage must stay at or under 7 kg. Weigh the animal inside the closed carrier, not separately. A carrier alone can consume one to two kilograms, so subtract that before choosing the pet. If the total crosses 7 kg at check-in, cabin travel is refused. Confirm the reading on a scale days ahead.
The cabin pet fee on the Italy to Egypt route is 6 USD one way. Budget that amount per direction, not per trip, so a round journey doubles it. Other routes on this carrier are priced in different currencies, so match the fee to the exact leg booked. Carry the fee ready for payment at check-in, since it applies before boarding.
So: cabin dog, a modest fee, and a 7 kg ceiling that decides everything. That's clean, but your route, your carrier dimensions, and your paperwork are not on this page. Build your actual itinerary through Pawgo's plan-builder and let it assemble a personalized plan for your exact trip. Luna's spreadsheet started as three printed copies; yours can be one tidy plan instead.
