With the exception of falcons and service dogs, animals are not allowed in the cabin during any flight. Falcons are allowed only in Economy Class and must be hooded for the entire journey. Customers are limited to carrying only one falcon aboard the flight. A chain or cord must be attached to one of the bird’s legs and tied securely to the handler to prevent the bird from flying.

A maximum of six birds are permitted in the cabin of an aircraft.


I am told it used to be two per passenger. Everything's going to hell in a handbasket.

And service dogs get short shrift most of the time it seems...

Service dogs

Qatar Airways permits free of charge carriage of a service dog in the passenger cabin only on itineraries that include flights to or from the USA. On all other routes, a service dog will not be allowed in the passenger cabin but will be carried free of charge in the aircraft hold. No other type of service animal is permitted in-cabin on any other flights.

Maybe if you put pants on the dog and chain a falcon to it they won't notice the fur...

...or, alternately, dress up as a falcon, dress the dog up as you, and chain yourselves together!
