Traveling with your beloved pet just got easier.

Flag carrier Philippine Airlines has officially launched “FurPAL,” a new in-cabin pet travel program that allows passengers to bring their small dogs on board all domestic routes starting February 16, 2026.

Designed for fur parents who consider their pets part of the family, FurPAL is the first and only in-cabin pet travel service currently offered by a Philippine airline.

Fly with Your Fur Baby

Under the FurPAL program, small dogs can stay inside a secure carrier placed under the seat in front of their owner throughout the flight. The service starts at ₱2,500 one-way, making it an accessible option for travelers who prefer not to leave their pets behind.

According to the airline, the initiative ensures that pets travel comfortably while maintaining safety and convenience for all passengers onboard.

“FurPAL is the first and only in-cabin pet travel service in the Philippines, allowing you to bring your small dog on board for as low as ₱2,500 one-way. Your fur baby will stay comfortably in a secure carrier placed under the seat in front of you, so you can enjoy the journey together while ensuring everyone’s comfort and safety,” the airline said in its announcement.

While the current rollout covers small dogs, PAL also revealed that the service will soon be available for cats.

A New Era for Pet-Friendly Travel

For many, it’s not just a flight — it’s finally traveling together.
