can I pretend to be a calico cat and get cheap airfare?

they seem nice...

up until the time I heard "pawsengers".

looks like they are on twitter too PetAirways, but Flights start at $149 and are available to and from NY, D.C., Chicago, Denver and LA.

yeah - I'm following them

I'm really curious to know who will use their service

and how their pets liked it

"pawsengers!!!" what about my snakes! All hell breaks lose every time I travel with them.

what happens when they get to the destination too. I bet their flights are faster than humans

resists a snakes on a plane joke

If I had a pet why would I spend the money to do this. Hell if I could get away with it I'd travel in the cargo hold. Probably cheaper.

they should have half the side of the cabin for pets

and half to humans

or maybe the "top level/first class" to pets and economy to humans

how is this viable as a business?

sannakji it is viable because they are drug traficking - you don't understand American business models at all do you?

no I'm just too foreign

Restaurants, banks, niche retail, automobiles and airlines all need to have a drug cartel or traficking aspect built into the model

poor san

in order to survive

haute couture as well but it is usually specifically centered around cocaine and heroine

it might be necessary sometimes to fly a pet...

it is often and pets get crappy treatment - cargo holds on planes have very bad air and are COLD!!!!

really? I assumed it was a joke. Hmmm. We paid more than that for Dusty fr FLA to LAX. Had extra water and ice packs under his pad in July

two layovers with special attn, we're told.

i don't know. how are the "cabins" safely secured? what happens in an emergency? don't think white lights lead to red lights on that plane

so many questions...

which dog do they seat next to the wing to open the emergency escape hatch?

how meals are served? what about *barf* bags?

bark bags

you guys are funny

yeah, so many questions. we'll find out when someone uses them.

the problem is that no one will. The end.

i;m thinking that in this economy, people won't be flying their pets

are there pet hotels? if not, then why would you fly them somewhere?

there are hotels that takes pets

Jango has stayed at the Westin with us

Bam stayed with us at a Motel 6 on the drive home from Austin. Bam and Rico both spent nights at the Pet Hotel (PetSmart)

then I'm all for it!

sannakji what do you do with your dog when you travel? does someone housesit?

i send him down country to his breeder for babysitting

there are "pet hotels" that take only pets as well - its the newfancy way to say kennel

there is one in San Francisco near Rainbow Grocery

for real.. at petsmart, you can get the deluxe "room" where your pet gets a bed with pillow and tv to watch. as if...

it's called Wag hotel ahericolie www.waghotels.com/ It was a brilliant idea for the last economic cycle, not this one.

I think PetAirways is brilliant. It's just a freight company, but with slightly glossier marketing. If you have to move your dog, this is

safer than cargo and cheaper than the seat next to you on your flight.
