Rome to Amsterdam with a dog in the cabin

On Rome to Amsterdam, 16 airlines accept dogs and cats in the cabin. Maximum weight, carrier size and booking channel all differ: the gap between the most generous and the tightest can decide whether your dog flies with you.

The constraint on this route

Amsterdam is KLM's hub, and KLM carries one dog or cat up to 8 kg in the cabin — but only in Economy, or in Business on European flights. In Premium Comfort and intercontinental Business the carrier is not allowed, because it does not fit under the seat: paying for a higher class takes your pet out of the cabin.
