New destinations bring total coverage to nine cities coast-to-coast for the breakthrough airline
Delray Beach, FL, January 21st, 2010. Pet Airways, www.petairways.com, the first pet-only airline specifically designed for the safe and comfortable transportation of pets, today announced it will add Phoenix and Atlanta to its coast-to-coast routes. The airline now serves nine cities across the country, a 30% increase in capacity since its July 2009 launch.
According to Dan Wiesel, President/CEO of Pet Airways, “We have been inundated by pet parents asking us when we are expanding our service to their states. Phoenix has been a priority for us because many Arizona pets have been grounded due to the heat restrictions tmost airlines have. But our airline is specifically designed for pets, with specially-designed climate-controlled cabins and ground facilities. “Wiesel continues, “Atlanta has always been a big airline hub, but now we’re making it pet-friendly at last. We make sure our “pawsengers” are kept cool and comfortable on the ground and in the air. For us, pawsengers come first.”
The Pet Airways Experience
Pet Airways ensures pets are in the good hands of people who love and know how to take care of pets. From the moment a pet is dropped off at a Pet Airways lounge, he or she is always under the care of trained Pet Attendants. Monitored by Pet Attendants, pets fly in planes that are fully-lit, climate-controlled and have the proper level of fresh air circulation that pets require.
“Pawsengers” are boarded and de-boarded from planes as quickly as possible, never left in the cold or heat, and depending on transit time, are offered toilet facilities, food and water as necessary during stops. Pet Parents are assured of sensitive, careful handling and the peace of mind that their pets are well looked after by people who care as much about their pets as they do.
