They could offer just a few "pet flights", with different livery, and interiors for easier cleaning, and a premium on the tickets for the pet owner and pet seats -- then also a discount for the excess no-pet travelers who explicitly opt into filling out a pet flight.
It might be a terrible idea, but I've both heard and had worse!
- slillibri 4y agoI doubt there is enough demand for them to invest the hundreds of millions per aircraft to provide this service. In addition, each of the routes they would be able to provide would remove gates for other, more profitable flights. Another factor would be turnaround, i.e. cleaning and resetting a ‘pet-friendly’ flight would probably take longer then a regular flight, increasing the at-gate time and thus reducing the number of flights that could use that gate.
