Getting There
Flights to Austria are fairly affordable and short at just one and a half hours. Prices start at £124 per person flying from Heathrow to Vienna. Prices are more expensive during the Christmas period - at around £164 per person.
Pets are permitted but are limited to only five animals. Each pet must have an electronic identification system or a clearly readable tattoo. Austria is part of the PETS scheme, rendering your pet exempt from quarantine. Check with the airline before you fly for their regulations and prices for pet transportation.
What is the PETS scheme?
The PETS scheme (Pet Travel Scheme) is an agreement which was made by several EU countries to allow the movement of pets between these countries free of quarantine regulations. Since its introduction, other non-EU countries which are free from the rabies virus have subscribed to the PETS scheme.
