Passengers of “Aeroflot” and “Rossiya” airlines will be able to transport pets on the adjacent passenger seat.
“The service will be available on a permanent basis on Aeroflot’s own flights and flights of the subsidiary airline “Russia” operating under the SU code,” the company said in a telegram.
Earlier, the service was tested for three months and found to be in demand. During this time, more than 900 pets were transported.
According to the new rules, it will be possible to transport one container with a pet weighing no more than 15 kilograms. The seat will be charged at the rate of an adult passenger. The pet must be transported in a hard or semi-hard container, where he could “stand up to his full height and turn around.”
- In January 2020, two cats died and another cat suffered frostbite on an Aeroflot flight from New York to Moscow.
- The dog of Muscovite Krystyna Ilyicheva also received injuries during the flight in the baggage compartment of the Aeroflot flight. In her Instagram, the girl showed photos of the carrier, which was covered in blood and mud. The owners complained to the police, but the prosecutor’s office did not find any violations during the transportation of animals.
After that, Russian airlines began to change the rules for transporting animals.
