Retrievair flies dogs and owners from New York to California via private jet
Based on · First reported
Sources
- Retrievair operated a private Embraer ERJ‑135 flight that carried dogs and their owners from Farmingdale, New York, with stops at private airports near Chicago, Dallas and Scottsdale before landing at Van Nuys, California.
- The service provides dedicated seats for dogs, attaches leads to each seat for takeoff, landing and turbulence, and requires dogs not to lie in aisles; fares are higher than typical commercial services but include ample legroom for humans and space for dogs to stretch, and passengers board through private fixed‑base operators with a quick ID check and metal‑detector wand instead of standard TSA screening.
