Pet urns can be brought on board, but certain regulations and procedures must be followed. ‌‌

According to the regulations of the Civil Aviation Administration of China, urns are not prohibited items, so they can be carried on board or checked in as luggage. Specific carrying regulations may vary depending on the airline and flight. Before actual operation, it is recommended to inquire about the relevant carrying regulations from the airline of the flight you are taking.

When carrying a pet urn, you need to pay attention to the following points:

‌Packing requirements‌: The ashes should be placed in a closed plastic bag or other sealed container, plus a wooden box, and the outermost layer is wrapped in cloth to ensure that they will not be damaged or leaked during transportation.
‌Security inspection process‌: During airport security inspection, you need to show the relevant death certificate and cremation certificate. Security personnel may ask about the contents of the box, but usually will not open the box for inspection unless they find anything abnormal.
‌Concealed carry‌: In order to avoid causing discomfort or panic to other passengers, it is recommended to carry the urn in a concealed manner, such as placing it in a luggage bag or backpack.
By making the above preparations and understanding the relevant regulations, you can ensure that your pet's urn can be brought on board smoothly.
