Pets on-board!

All you need to make them fly on a private jet

Pets on-board!

Owners of dogs, cats and other small friends know it well: pets are part of the family. They don’t just share space and time with us, but they also become part of everyday life – loyal and sweet companions for the whole family.

This is the reason why it is important to take care of them the best way possible, also when travelling. Private jet is one of the most suitable solutions to travel with pets: a custom space equipped with everything needed, a quiet and safe environment where it is possible for these special passengers to be together with humans they know well and are confident with.
