   You will have to make this request at the time of making your booking. The staff will advise you about certain formalities that you will have to complete. Charges for the carriage of accompanied pets will be the normal excess baggage charges and animal and container are not allowed for pooling in the Free Baggage Allowance. However these pets may be carried free of charge if the dog is trained to lead the blind passenger with impaired vision and dependant on such dog or the passenger with impaired hearing and dependant on the dog, provided this is medically established or supported. Dog if properly harnessed may be permitted to be carried in the cabin but cannot occupy a seat. Carriage of pets will not be permitted on nonstop flight operated by Air India on the India – USA - India route. The only exception would be service dogs required to assist the blind or deaf, which may be carried in the cabin. Pets will be accepted only when properly crated and accompanied by valid health and rabies vaccination certificates, entry permits and other documents required by countries of entry for transit Pets will be accepted at owner’s risk and subject to requirements of the carrier. Air India will not be responsible in the event such pets are refused entry into or passage through any country or territory
