Product Details & Size Guide
Pet Airways began with a question familiar to pet owners: could animals travel in the cabin instead of as cargo? The airline launched in 2009 with attendants caring for pets and a first weekly route serving nine U.S. cities. It later ceased operations in 2011, after flying more than 9,000 pets. This kids tee introduces young aviation fans to a remarkable company from travel history, while giving pet-loving families a fun conversation starter about how one airline tried to rethink flying with animals.
Pet Airways was an American airline headquartered in Delray Beach, Florida, and focused exclusively on transporting pets. Founded by Dan Wiesel and Alysa Binder after they considered the challenges of traveling with their dog, the company was funded by a group of investors. It described itself as the first airline designed specifically for pets to travel in the main cabin rather than as cargo. Operations began in 2009, and its first weekly flight, on July 14, served nine U.S. cities: New York City, Baltimore/Washington, Chicago, Omaha, Fort Lauderdale, Atlanta, Phoenix, Denver, and Los Angeles. Pets traveled under the care of attendants, with airport lounge check-ins and en-route tracking offered to owners. In April 2011, the airline announced additional destinations in Texas, St. Louis, and Orlando, but those services did not begin. It ceased operations in 2011, after flying more than 9,000 pets. Its parent, PAWS Pet Company Inc., later moved into pharmaceuticals and changed its name to Praxsyn Corporation. As of May 2024, the Pet Airways website indicated plans to resume flights if funding could be secured.
