As a dog lover, I can’t help but find this to be very cute, though admittedly it’s a bit controversial…
In the video, he can be seen flying United first class, with his dog in his lap. For what it’s worth, his dog, Piper, is 19 years old, and is blind and deaf. As a dog lover, huge credit to this guy in general, as he loves helping dogs, fosters them, etc. Anyway, I digress…
He can be seen cuddling with his dog and feeding him a goldfish snack, and the flight attendant takes drink orders. He orders a Diet Coke for himself, and a water for his dog. After taking the order, the flight attendant politely reminds him “your pet needs to be in its carrier at all times.” He responds by asking “the whole time?” The flight attendant responds “the whole time.”
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on One Mile at a Time.
