Pets Transportation Costs

The cost of transporting pets is based on the weight of the pet + the carry-case + pet food.
Rates applicable for pets accompanied by the owner.
Live animals (pets – dogs, cats and exotic birds only) weighing up to 8 kg (including container) will be accepted for carriage in the cabin with an accompanying passenger, on condition that they are carried in a cage – soft or hard – no larger than 40 x 40 by 21 centimeters and can be stored under the passenger's seat. El Al Reservations must be notified in advance.
Live animals weighing more than 8 kg will be carry in the hold of the plane.
Payment can be made at the EL AL cashier at the airport or at an EL AL branch.
Payment for transporting animals is separate; it is not calculated as part of the passenger's regular baggage weight.
If there is a continuation flight with another carrier, passengers should arrange payment directly with the foreign carrier.
The costs are not applicable on code share flights operated by foreign carriers.
A passenger with an open ticket pays the charge for a round trip, even if the return date is not known.
