Flight Volunteer Process — The Road

STEP 1 Your Flight Time

Contact us if you're flying with Lufthansa, Austrian, LOT, TUI, or Transavia in the next 10+ days and want to volunteer.

STEP 2 Flight Route

Send your flight details so we can confirm the route accepts dogs—we'll handle the paperwork.

STEP 3 Your Contact Details

If your flight allows dogs, send booking details, phone, and email so we can add the dog to your flight.

STEP 4 Airport Meeting

We'll meet you at the airport to handle the dog's check-in and cover the dog's flight fee.

STEP 5 Pick-Up at Destination

Collect your bags and go to Bulk/Animal Baggage. Staff will load the crate on a trolley.

STEP 6 Handover at Exit

Hand the trolley and the dog's paperwork to the new family. The dog remains in the crate the whole time.

Well done—You earned your Flight Angel status and changed a dog's life! 🧡
