🚫 French categories 1 & 2
Category 1 refusedCategory 2 conditions
French category 1 dogs (non-LOF pit-bull/Boerbull/Tosa, mastiffs) aren't accepted. Category 2 (LOF) dogs need proof of breed, liability insurance and a permit — cabin only if under 8 kg. Sedation isn't advised.

🐶 Check whether your dog is snub-nosed

Corsair refuses brachycephalic (snub-nosed) breeds in the hold. What the airline itself wrote is in the restrictions above — that text alone says which breeds it turns away.

These 22 breeds are MyDogCanFly's own brachycephalic classification, heaviest first — it is not the list published by Corsair. Use it to situate your dog, then read the airline's own wording above and confirm with it before booking.

🌡️ Temperature & hold

Temperature limits: not disclosed

Corsair publishes no hold-temperature limits or seasonal embargo on its pet page.
