Private jet firm K9 JETS is launching a brand-new private jet service for dogs and owners travelling from Dubai to the United Kingdom.
The inaugural flight departed from the private jet terminal at Al Maktoum International Airport, Dubai on September 26 and flew into Farnborough, UK. Spaces were limited with tickets available for $9,925 which included a seat for one passenger and a space in the cabin for a canine companion. The new Dubai – London route will see regular flights take place throughout 2023 and 2024 from December across January, April, July, and September with further dates set to be announced.
According to the International Pet and Transport Association (IPATA), over 4 million pets and live animals are transported by air per year. Pet travel is set to continue to rise globally, and with this new Dubai-London route, K9 JETS aims to meet the demand for UAE-based passengers travelling and relocating back to the UK with their beloved pets.
