Flying With Your Pet
Not all animals can fly commercially because of their size, age or other factors. If that’s the case then the Sky Pet Sky Jet program is for you and your pets. Although it tends to be a bit pricier, the point of this program is to keep your pet safe while traveling. No more worries if you dog is too big to bring on board, fly the sky jet way and everyone can arrive at the planned destination happily.

Step 1:
-
Flying with your pet:
-
Elaine Russel recently took a flight with her dog Daisy.The experience made her never want to fly with a pet again.
All of a sudden, the stewardess came up and she spotted this container on the floor. And she just let loose; she must have been having a bad day.
Most airlines limit the size of the pet you bring to 20 lbs. and must be kept under the sit the entire flight. The only other option is putting them in the cargo haul.But for those of you who can not bear to see your dogs treated like luggage, there is another option if you have the cash.

Step 2:
-
Give your pet the sky:
-
Bombardier Skypet Skyjet Program gives man’s best friend a taste of the friendly skies.
We have a lot of our customers calling us asking about travelling with their pets, so we decided to create a program just for them. The program pairs up pet owners with small pet-friendly charter airlines. Pets can fly by your side in the seat next to you.

Step 3:
-
What's the cost?
-
Buddy and I cannot fly commercially, you see if I were to put him into cargo, he is a little too old and he is a little too dangerous plus based on his size he is a about 32 lbs. He would never fit under the sit. My only other option is chartering a jet.
Of course, all this convenience comes with a cost.A typical flight on a small lear jet costs $1700 an hour but if you get six friends together, a 2-hour flight will only cost each of you $476.

Step 4:
-
Thanks for watching.
-
The pets enjoy it. They are much more relaxed, they are able to look out the window and just enjoy the trip. It is less stressful for the entire family.This guide pet program is more expensive but for some avoiding the stress of commercial flying is worth every penny.
