Never in a million years would you of guessed that someone would come up with this business idea. Pet Airways is an airline dedicated to transport pets from place to place. At the moment the operation only runs in America and that is it but they have big plans to make the business go world wide.
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.
Flying an animal at that sought of height could affect under-lying heart conditions. 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 company, which will begin with one flight in each of its five cities, might add more flights and cities. Within the next year, Binder hopes to develop over 25 desitinations onto their current roster.
