Can this breed fly?
- The cabin is capped at 8 kg including the carrier at Lufthansa, KLM and Air France; heavier pets travel in the hold or as manifest cargo.
- On the IATA CR-82 list of strong breeds, so they must fly in a reinforced CR-82 crate. These crates are heavier, pricier and not stocked everywhere, which affects cost and routing.
- Germany prohibits the import of pit bull type dogs, so a move into Germany is not possible for this breed.
- France classifies this breed among its Category 1 dogs and refuses their entry, so a move into France is not possible without a recognised pedigree exempting it.
