Dogs from Helsinki To UK

[doommer]

Hi, whats an easiest way to bring two dogs to UK, ive heard that there are exceptions when Finnair or so can't bring dogs in Hold, luggage but only as a cargo, although i can't see that on their website (GB version) and the only answer i found on the forum was around 3 years back, which isn't so helpful. (By looking at different companies such as Monarch its fine to bring pets here, so i can't see a problem with that (although hopefully ringing them tomorrow))

PS: Sorry for double brackets Software engineering job kills

Faced the same problem recently.
UK has quite weird rules about pet flights. You can transport your pet only as a cargo. In my situation pet transport price was about 600e
If you have someone to meet you at Paris - fly there and go to the UK by car. Via Norwegian pet ticket to Paris was about 50e.

I confirm that. Though one has to be sure if the airline approves 2dogs per a passenger .Another way is to go by car, but that takes time. One still can catch a ferry from Oslo to the UK (or independent Scotland ). If you have yet more time rake a ferry to Germany and drive to Calais ....
