Bark Airline has unveiled its first airline service exclusively for dogs. Recognizing the challenges animals face while traveling, and the restrictions many airlines impose on flying with pets, Bark aims to offer a solution for pet owners who want to travel with their furry companions.
Founded in 2011, Bark is a company known for its dog food and other pet products. The company recently announced the launch of an airline service specifically for dogs, addressing the difficulties canines encounter when traveling and the lack of pet-friendly options in the airline industry.
With this new service, Bark Airline becomes the second airline company to provide dedicated air travel for pets, following the lead of K9 Jets, a UK-based airline that allows pets to travel with their owners.
This announcement is great news for pet owners who have longed to take trips with their pets. Moving pets from one city to another will also be much easier with Bark’s new service.
Bark Airline’s service has already commenced. According to their booking website, the first flight from New York to Los Angeles on Thursday is already sold out.
Commenting on the announcement, Bark co-founder and CEO Matt Meeker said, “We are excited to take the insights we’ve learned over the years to create an experience that is truly dog-first, which is drastically different from just accepting dogs – from the ground to the skies. We believe this initiative will elevate awareness of our brand’s mission and values, introduce more dog lovers to the Bark family, and help enrich the lives of dogs and their people around the world.
