This new airline was designed specifically for the comfort of dogs, with routes from London to New York and from New York to LA.

Your four-legged travel buddy can wander the cabin as they please once you’re in the air, and will have access to as many treats as their heart desires.

The airline launches later this month.

The plane will never have more than 10 dogs onboard to ensure the experience is as stress-free as possible for your pup.

“There are high-end concierges at both ends of the flight to look after you and your pet.” 
- Adam Gilchrist

This experience will be a little more stressful for the humans, as a one-way ticket costs almost R150 000 ($8000).

While the plane is pet-friendly, it is not child-friendly, and no under-18s are allowed.
