There’s no way around it: traveling with our pets can be pretty unnerving. From stressful moments of anxiety to overcrowded spaces full of strangers, it takes a well-behaved good boy or girl to get through the process without blowing a gasket, and that’s just talking about ourselves.

Thankfully, one aviation innovator is shaking things up with an industry-first service that lets pets travel solo without their owners. By choosing Vicuna Air , you get access to three ticket classes and a new standard of stress-free travel, while your pup stays in the cabin with a personal concierge .

Vicuna Air Launches Biscuit Class

Pets flying solo might sound like a wild idea, but Vicuna Air is making it reality with Biscuit Class. With a ticket in paw, your furry friend skips the cages, ditches the anxiety and enjoys a journey built entirely around comfort, care and peace of mind. Best of all, they get a premium experience aboard a Gulfstream GV private jet, redefining what pet owners can expect from international travel.

"Biscuit Class changes the terms of the conversation entirely. For too long, pet owners have been asked to accept the unthinkable: a beloved pet locked away in a cage, frightened and alone in the cargo, while you are locked in your own nightmare of panic and uncertainty,” Vicuna Air’s founder and CEO Jamie Everett said in a press release . “We believe there is a better way. The cost is comparable, yet the emotional experience could not be more different. Once you see the alternative, the case for doing better becomes very hard to ignore."
