The flight
Southern Europe to the UAE, without a connection
Madrid opens the Iberian peninsula to the same cabin-seat experience as our London and Amsterdam departures: a private terminal, a small group of owners, and pets in the cabin for the whole flight.
For pets that struggle with heat or noise, avoiding a European connection and a hold sector matters more than the total journey time.
- Direct Madrid to Dubai, around seven hours
- Ideal for Spain, Portugal and southern Europe
- Pet in the cabin, no hold sector
- Spanish endorsement and UAE permit arranged
- All breeds welcome, including snub-nosed
- Return Dubai to Madrid legs also scheduled
