Emirates SkyCargo’s Animal Care solution encompasses proven experience in handling and care for live animals, including pets, exotics and the world’s finest racehorses, as well as complying strictly with IATA Live Animal Regulations (LAR).
All animals, including domestic pets transported are constantly supervised for their safety, comfort and security, right from acceptance to delivery, in an environment designed to ensure their welfare. While animal welfare is our first priority, Emirates SkyCargo also ensures that the often complex requirements of regulatory authorities are met to avoid unnecessary delays at any point and guides the shipper about documentation, container requirements and other IATA Regulations.
The same detailed attention and IATA credentials that apply for the transportation of live animals equally extend to the transportation of horses. Emirates SkyCargo provides specialised horse stalls, simplified loading and offloading operations using a unit-load device, and independently controlled air-conditioned zones to ensure horses are accommodated in maximum comfort and security. A team of expert veterinarians and equine specialists are on hand throughout the flight and grooms are also permitted to accompany horses.
With a fleet of state-of-the-art freighter aircraft and the dedication of our expert personnel, the wellbeing of both domestic and wild animals is assured.
Emirates SkyCargo are experts in the carriage of many kinds of animals. Regular travellers with us include falcons, dogs, cats and tropical fish. Also, we are increasingly carrying more unusual species like lions, deer, kangaroos, bears, tigers, hippos, etc.
No matter what the animal, Emirates SkyCargo offers Special Animal Care arrangements designed to meet every need. This includes our Animal Care facilities and special arrangements at our operational hub in Dubai which hosts a team of handling staff, specially trained in professional animal care as well as requirements of the IATA Live Animal Regulations to ensure the safe journey of every animal to its destination.

Non-slip floors and interiors without rough or sharp edges are also standard features. The stalls can be adapted to carry up to three horses, depending on their size, age, condition and the owner’s requirements.
Horses travel on board our state-of-the-art freighter aircraft with several independently air-conditioned zones, allowing us to regulate the temperature, pressure and ventilation to suit the individual needs of the horses. In addition, the long haul capabilities of our 747 freighter aircraft prevents unnecessary stops.

We also have the additional backing of a team of external veterinarians and equine specialists who are on call at all times to ensure horses are as comfortable in the air as they are on the ground.
