You would of never of guessed it but the day has come where you are finally witness to one of the most bizarre inventions of our time. Pet Airways specialise in transportation for pets. The company only operates in America at the moment but they have plans to make this operation go worldwide by the end of next year.
This is not going to be an easy job but it is definetly attainable. It may be a bit of a wacky idea but I think that this business model has some real potential.
Many doctors in the field are worried that putting that much strain on animals will cause an increase in heart problems. Pet airways have already announced that there will be an on board animal cardiology vet to take care of any flight trouble. Animals health is very changable and it is important to consider every avenue when taking their safety into consideration.
At the moment, Pet Airways serves New York, Washington, Chicago, Denver and Los Angeles and charges just £91 for a one way fare which is very competitive against the US Airlines prices to take your animal on a flight.
Pet Airways offers a very different service than anything else you have seen before. Dogs and cats alike will be loaded into a normal looking plane with carriers instead of seats. The animals, up to 50 at a time will be escorted to the plane by attendants who will check them every 15 minutes during the flight to make sure they are ok. Local animal hospitals from around the area have been in support over the idea to take animals in the sky by plane and think it is a great idea.
The idea is to add more destinations on to their flight schedule as soon as possible. Within the next year, Binder hopes to develop over 25 desitinations onto their current roster.
