Traveling with your pet can be a wonderful experience when traveling on a private jet aircraft. This is a choice many travelers are making as flying privately with your beloved pet is a comfortable and enjoyable experience vs. flying commercially.
There are no worries when flying on a private jet with your favorite pet. Private jet travel is geared to meeting the specific needs of each and every passenger, including the four legged variety!
With all the difficulties traveling on commercial airlines adding a pet to the mix can be an added problem. Depending on the restrictions and pet policy with commercial airlines, which varies with each airline, taking your pet on your travels can be daunting. Airlines have specific requirements for pet travel and even when those guidelines are met there can be issues during the travel day. There can be complications with missed connections, weather delays, maintenance delays that can cause a real headache and worry for pet owners.
Most airlines require owners to check their pet into cargo if the pet weighs over 20lbs. Airline cargo compartments can be difficult and even harsh environments for your pet. Pets will often experience high stress when dealing with the strange sounds and surroundings of the cargo area. Many pets just can’t deal with the stress. The US Humane Society reports that up to 5000 animals each year are either injured, lost, or accidentally killed while flying on commercial airlines. Small pets under 20lbs. are sometimes allowed to fly in the cabin with their owner, but even then they are required to be restrained and kept in an airline approved container which is very tight quarters for your pet. In addition, there are also restrictions on the number of pets allowed to book on any given flight in the cabin.
With private jet travel there is no need to worry about your favorite pet when flying. Private charter jets allow owners and their pets to travel together in comfort and also offer special perks and conveniences designed specifically for pet travellers. Your pet will be allowed to sit next to you or on your lap and be off their leash and not confined to a small pet carrier. Private jet charter also will provide many special “treats” for dogs, a water bowl and special attention from the flight crew. All pets are required to be secured during takeoff and landing, which is a safety guideline to protect their safety.
