1How can I reserve a train ticket for my pet?

Print this question / answer

Train ticket reservations for animals are not yet available on our site.

You can reserve this service:

In France: at counters in all stations, in our SNCF sales outlets or in authorised travel agencies.

By contacting the sales department

You benefit, on the ticket price for your pet, from a 50% reduction on the full fare of a 2nd class ticket, even if you travel in 1st class.

However, if your pet is very small (weighting less than 6 kg) and you transport it in a bag or basket that is not larger than 45cm x 30cm x 25cm, you will only pay a maximum of 5.10 euros.

On board of Thalys, you can bring your pet along free of charge if it does not weight more than 5 kg. It must be in a bag or basket that is not larger than 55 cm in length, 30 cm wide and 30 cm high.

For animals over 5 kg, you must purchase a pet ticket (35% of the Librys rate in Comfort 2).
