Air travel is now going to the dogs — but in style.Bark Air, a new airline designed completely for pups, recently made its inaugural flight from New York to Los Angeles. The service currently operates limited routes servicing New York, Los Angeles, Paris, and London. The airline is encouraging people to suggest future routes through an online form. A one-way ticket from New York to Los Angeles costs $6,000 and a one-way ticket from New York to London costs $8,000. From New York, the airline operates out of a private airport in Westchester County, and flies to the Van Nuys airport outside of Los Angeles. “We are excited to take the insights we’ve learned over the years to create an experience that is truly dog-first, which is drastically different from just accepting dogs – from the ground to the skies,” Bark’s CEO Matt Meeker said in a statement.
