Founders Dan & Alysa Binder found an answer to hassle free pet travel. Motivated to improve pet travel, Dan & Alysa found a safe and affordable way to get their Jack Russell Terrier Zoe from point A to point B.

Pet Airways is launching it’s pets-only airline as alternative travel for lucky pups. Complete with First Class travel, flight attendants and lounging areas, the lucky pawsengers will appreciate this new mode of travel and soon forget about cargo areas or long car rides.

Pet Airways climate controlled cabin is carved out to accommodate their custom built pet carriers for safe and secure travel. A fleet of 20 planes to include 747’s have no seat belts or overhead bins and are climate controlled. Dogs will be taken out for potty breaks and will no longer have to cross their legs to hold it in until the plane takes off. 

Flights start at $149 and flights will be available to and from New York, Chicago (yippy), Washington D.C., Denver and LAX. Allowed are all cats and dogs. Future plans include expanding to include other animals and pets. They are currently hiring pet attendants to assist during flights and will be the only humans allowed on board for travel.

***The concept should make for smoother travel for pets. According to a study by the San Francisco SPCA, about 2 million pets ride in plane cargo areas each year, and about 5,000 of them are injured during the trip.
