Private jet firm K9 JETS is introducing an exclusive service for canine-loving travellers, offering private jet flights from Dubai to the UK.
The inaugural flight is scheduled for September 26th, departing from Al Maktoum International Airport in Dubai and landing in Farnborough, UK. Tickets, priced at $9,925 (3,397.61Dhs), include a seat for one passenger and a spot in the cabin for a furry companion.
The Dubai-London route will feature regular flights throughout 2023 and 2024, with departures in December, January, April, July, and September. This service aims to meet the growing demand for pet-friendly travel, as over 4 million pets and animals are transported by air annually, according to the International Pet and Transport Association (IPATA).
Before K9 JETS, pet owners faced airline-specific policies, often leading to larger pets travelling in cargo, separated from their owners. K9 JETS’ service allows pets to sit on their owner’s lap or in the cabin, enhancing the travel experience for both.
Travellers on this route must provide medical certification for their pets, and pups must remain leashed. To make the journey stress-free, a deluxe private terminal at Al Maktoum International Airport offers a welcoming environment with a designated area for pets to relax before takeoff.
Founded by Kirsty and Adam Golder in 2022, K9 JETS has already flown over 220 pets and 200 passengers. The company has ambitious expansion plans, eyeing new routes in Asia and Australia by 2024. All flights are operated by a licensed U.S. air carrier.
For those looking to embark on this unique journey, available flight dates include:
Farnborough, UK to Al Maktoum International, Dubai: 18th December, 5th January, 14th April, 21st July, 29th September
Al Maktoum International, Dubai to Farnborough, UK: 19th December, 6th January, 15th April, 22nd July, 30th September
Secure your spot and treat your furry friend to a luxurious travel experience with K9 JETS’ Dubai-London private jet service.
