What is a pet?

Our definition of a pet is a domestic animal such as cat or a dog. We classify livestock animals as those commonly kept for production or leisure activities in a farming or stable environment, and these would need to be booked on as freight. If you're not sure how to book your pet or animal, call our Contact Center on 0345 609 1026, and they'll be happy to help.

Before you travel

All you have to do is let us know that you are planning to take a pet, when you make your booking. When booking online you'll be able to select from the following options – travelling on foot with a pet, travelling by car with a pet, or travelling to France with a pet.

If you are booking through an agent or tour operator, make sure they include the correct pet details in your booking.

Condor Islander can accommodate a maximum of 2 pets per cabin, where 1 animal will fit very comfortably. If passengers wish to travel with 2 dogs, they are advised that if both are large, the available cabin floor space is limited.When travelling on Condor Islander, passengers need to bring the below with them for their pet/s.

The journey

We don’t allow pets into the passenger lounges, except for recognised assistance dogs. If you’re travelling on foot your pet will need to be in a cage that meets RSPCA requirements for pet animals, which will be kept in a dedicated pet area on the car deck. The cage must be made of sturdy plastic or metal and not canvas or cardboard, which gives your pet plenty of space for food, water and familiar toys for the journey.

If you’re travelling by car with your pet they can stay in the car for the sea journey, but make sure you leave windows slightly open for fresh air, and also some water. We ask all travellers not to set their car alarms, so as not to upset any pets travelling.

If your dog isn’t in a cage or in the back of a vehicle using a dog safety guard, it’s worth considering removing any collar or harness before leaving the dog. This is because collars and harnesses can become caught on objects such as hand brakes, gear sticks and foot pedals, which could harm the dog. When you return to your car, control your dog using a slip lead to loop around its neck before opening the door wide.

It is recommended that you do not secure your dog by its collar or harness to a fixed point or seat belt in the car whilst unattended.

Visits to the car deck during the journey are normally permitted, but you’ll need to be accompanied by a member of the ship’s crew, and it is dependent on weather conditions. For more information please ask a member of staff onboard.

If travelling on Condor Islander, passengers staying in pet friendly cabins will be met by a cabin steward where they will be given their cabin key card and directions to their cabin.

Pets must be muzzled when going from the car deck to cabin and cabin to the outside deck. Pets are not permitted in the passenger lounges, lobbies and restaurants’ and must remain in pet friendly cabins unless on the outside deck for toileting or exercise.

Customers are reminded that the dog must wear a muzzle when outside a vehicle, cabin or kennel. Customers are asked to show the muzzle at check-in. If customers don’t have one, pet will need to remain in vehicle or Pet cage.
