Flying with a pet on Azul

Azul carries pets in the cabin only, never in the hold, and the rules have real gotchas that get animals turned away at the counter: dogs can only fly from the United States to Brazil, not the other way, there are no pets on Azul Conecta flights, and emotional-support animals aren't accepted. Tell us your route and animal and we'll tell you honestly whether it can fly before you book.

    How Azul's pet policy generally works

    Pet spots are cabin-only and capped per flight, and they sell out, so plan and call before you book, not after.

    Cabin only, never the hold:

    Azul carries dogs and cats in the cabin only. There's no cargo-hold pet option, so an animal that doesn't fit the cabin rules can't travel with Azul at all. Plan around that from the start.

    The dog direction trap:

    Dogs may fly with Azul only from the United States to Brazil, not from Brazil to the United States. Cats may travel in both directions. This one catches people out constantly, so confirm your route before you count on it.

    No pets on Azul Conecta:

    Flights operated by Azul Conecta don't take in-cabin pets. If any leg of your itinerary is on Conecta, the pet can't be on it, so the whole routing has to be planned around that.

    Carrier, weight and age limits:

    The pet plus its carrier must stay within Azul's cabin limits, the carrier around 43 cm long by 31.5 cm wide by 20 cm high and the total weight up to 10 kg. Minimum age is 4 months, or 6 months for travel to the United States.

    The rabies certificate:

    A valid rabies vaccination certificate is required, and Azul treats it as valid for a limited window from issue, so timing matters. Health and entry paperwork for the destination country is on you, we'll point you at what's needed.

    Spots are capped and sell out:

    Only a set number of pets fit per flight. Never book the ticket and add the pet later, call us first so we can confirm a cabin spot exists on your exact flights before anything is paid.

    Pet rules, carrier sizes, per-flight caps and fees are set by Azul and by the destination country, and they change. We never publish the fee amounts; an agent confirms yours before anything is charged. Always confirm the current rules directly, this is one where being wrong strands an animal.

    Azul pet rules at a glance

    Cabin only, and the direction and aircraft matter as much as the carrier.

    Carrier + pet
    Carrier ~43 x 31.5 x 20 cm, up to 10 kg total; min age 4 months (6 for the USA)

    Never book first and add the pet later. Cabin pet spots are capped per flight and sell out, and Conecta legs and the dog-direction rule can rule out a routing entirely. Call us before you buy so we can confirm a real spot on flights that actually allow your animal.

    Frequently asked

    Can I take my dog from Brazil to the USA on Azul?+
    No. Azul carries dogs in the cabin only from the United States to Brazil, not from Brazil to the United States. Cats can travel both ways. If you need a dog out of Brazil, that has to be arranged another way, so call us before you book anything.
    Does Azul put pets in the cargo hold?+
    No. Azul is cabin-only for pets, there is no hold option. If your animal doesn't fit the cabin carrier and weight limits (carrier about 43 x 31.5 x 20 cm, up to 10 kg total), it can't travel with Azul, and we'll help you find another path.
    Does Azul accept emotional-support animals?+
    No. Azul does not accept emotional-support animals. Trained service dogs are a separate category with their own rules. If you were counting on an ESA, tell us before booking and we'll explain what's actually possible.
    Why can't my pet be on my connecting flight?+
    If any leg is operated by Azul Conecta, that leg won't take an in-cabin pet, so the connection breaks the pet's journey. We'll check every segment of your itinerary and route you around Conecta legs where we can.
