Four legged fliers are taking to the skies.
Following BARK Air’s inaugural flight on May 23, the fido-friendly airline has seen a massive demand for pet owners eager to fly with their dogs.
The launch of this new airline only included flights between New York (HPN) and Los Angeles (VNY) and New York (HPN) and London (BQH), and now five new cities, domestic and international, are being added to the flight schedule.
BARK Air just announced more routes to the metro areas of Paris (LBG), Chicago (MDW), San Francisco/San Jose (SJC), Phoenix (PHX), and Miami/Fort Lauderdale (FXE).Flights for the new routes are available for booking as of Wednesday, June 12, with routes starting this October.
“The interest and enthusiasm around BARK Air to date have been overwhelming,” said Matt Meeker, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of BARK.
“We are excited to expand BARK Air’s service to new cities and through new routes, accommodating customer demand and bringing our unique, stress-free dog-centric travel experience to even more families.”BARK Air is envisioned form from a dog’s perspective, enabling dogs and dog parents to travel together easily.
The airline removes the need for larger dogs to fly cargo and creates a more fun and humane way for dogs to travel long distances. The white glove service for travelers with paws includes an air concierge, flight prep with calming pheromones, music and colors that dogs prefer, beverages and BARK-branded treats, emergency pee pads, plus snacks and surprises throughout the flight.
