Trained service dogs

If you have a qualifying disability, you can travel with a trained service dog with a license from any ADI or IGDF accredited organisation. You need this service dog license on all flights except for flights from the US. If you have a psychiatric support dog, you can only travel with it on a direct flight from the US.

We recommend you call us at least 48 hours before your flight if you are travelling with a trained service dog.

Our Sunflower is for everyone with a non-visible disability

We know that not all disabilities or conditions are visible. If you have a hidden disability, we want you to feel at ease and supported throughout your journey with us.

If you're travelling from or through Abu Dhabi, you can pick up a Sunflower lanyard from the Special Assistance desks at the check-in hall and the transit area.

The Sunflower lanyard lets us know you may need extra help or time. We're here to offer our full support and ensure your journey is as smooth as possible.
