14 - Protected animals and plants

The illegal trade and transport of endangered animals or plants, or products derived from these protected species, is a growing threat to biodiversity. The following is strictly forbidden:

  • The transport of hunting trophies (even if legally obtained) in the hold, cabin, or cargo for all flights
  • The import of plants or protected*animal species, whether they be live animals or animal parts

Do not put yourself in an illegal situation and join us: Check the legality of the products you carry in the hold or cabin. *The list of protected species is defined by CITES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora)

Confirm the legality of the products you are transporting on the CITES website
