A video of the lucky puppy was shared on social networks, in addition to the caption, “There was a dog on my flight travelling business class”.
In the clip, the electronic camera pans around the aircraft cabin prior to coming to rest on a fair-haired hound, which is sleeping on a business class bed with its head on a pillow and its body tucked under the duvet.
The video has actually been shared on Youtube, Tiktok and Facebook reels; on the latter platform, it was published with the caption, “This is what success looks like when you have millions of followers on pawnly fans.”
Having evaluated it, air travel professionals View From the Wing said: “Readers may correct me, but this looks like a LATAM cabin, so a South America flight. Delta is partial owner of LATAM.”
The clip resembled more than 250,000 times on Facebook, with audiences absolutely seduced by the spoiled family pet.
One user commented: “He looks so relaxed! I’d love a dog beside me on a flight instead of a person!”, while another composed: “I cannot wait to travel in a flight full of dog owners and their dogs with them. It’s gonna be a great fun. Imagine lots of furry friends in one flight. Party.”
It’s not the very first time a dog has actually handled to get an upgrade on a flight.
In November 2022, two corgis got the A-list treatment when flying from Singapore to San Francisco on Singapore Airlines in business class.
The 2 corgis, Peanut and Mindy, come from Tommy Suriwong and his partner.
Suriwong published about the experience to his Facebook page, joking that this was a “Singapore Airlines SQ33 SFO-SIN with built-in corgi seating area,” in addition to an adorable image of the set of pooches.
