Imagine taking a vacation and never having to leave your furry friend behind. Well, that dream may soon become a reality! Virgin Airlines has just announced their plans to allow pets in the cabin during flights, making them the first airline in Australia to offer this unique service.
In a recent press release titled ‘Cats out the Bag,’ Virgin Airlines expressed their excitement about becoming the go-to airline for pet-loving travelers. And it seems they have good reason to be thrilled. According to a survey conducted in 2021, a whopping 85% of people supported the idea of having pets in the cabin. In fact, 57% even claimed that they would become more frequent flyers if they could bring their furry companions along for the journey.
Jayne Hrdlicka, the CEO of Virgin Airlines, shared her enthusiasm for this new venture, saying, “Our love for animals has always been in the Virgin Australia DNA, and we are excited at the prospect of taking off with Australia’s first-ever pets in cabin flights. It’s something that commonly happens overseas and is proven to work well.”
