Can you bring a dog on a long-distance bus in Denmark?
Pets stay at home on FlixBus
Short answer
FlixBus does not take animals on its buses, so you cannot bring a dog or cat, even a small one in a carrier. The only exception is service animals that help passengers with disabilities. This applies on FlixBus routes inside Denmark and on its routes abroad. If you need to travel with a pet between Danish cities, look at other ways of travelling and check their rules before you book.
Why
- Pets are not carried on FlixBus.
- Service animals for people with disabilities are allowed.
- The rule also covers small dogs in a bag or carrier.
Details
Wheelchairs and other mobility aids follow separate rules on FlixBus.
Tip
If you travel with a service animal, contact FlixBus customer service before the trip.
What may differ
Other bus companies and local buses have their own rules for dogs, so check with the company you travel with.
Common misconception
Many think a small dog in a carrier can always come along, as on many local buses.
What actually happens
FlixBus does not carry any pets, whatever their size.
