Can you imagine a BE-1900 from BWI to LAX?

Yea, but at least it gets to ride in the "comfort" of the main cabin

Does anyone know how they are operating? I mean, is this Part 121 Scheduled or Part 135 Scheduled? Part 121 is anything with more than 19 passengers. Is the word "Passenger" interchangable with "Pawsenger"?

If this was going anywhere, it would be 121 Supp. or 135 On-Demand. What is the payload of a BE-1900? Dogs are freight in the FAA's eyes.

So what if the pet is blind. Can they bring a seeing-eye human? Would be a great loophole to fly cheap with your pet.

God that's classic. I might have to call them and ask on that one.

I thought payload was around 4,000 lbs. Someone correct me if I'm wrong...

The reason I thought this was certainly a joke was this:

...monitors the last time your pet had a potty break, and makes sure that they get regular potty breaks along the way. This means that it may take us longer to get to where we are going...
So, they will *land and take off again*???

It seems that it's not a joke, as they are actually processing credit cards. So, this is either for real, or a scam to steal money!

Riiight.... A diversion because my hamster died....

Suburban is looking for a BE99 driver with an upgrade to the 1900. Suburban is the operator of Pet Airways.
