Welcome to a new era of dog-first travel! While many airlines claim to be dog-friendly, the typical experience for dogs and their people is anything but friendly, with strict rules forcing you to shove your best friend under a seat in a duffle bag — or worse, lock them in a crate underneath the plane.
At BARK, we believe being “dog-friendly” is not enough. Launching BARK Air is the next big step in our mission to make all dogs happy.
We’re excited to introduce a new standard of travel, in which dogs are treated like family, not luggage.
Our Commitment:
- BARK Air planes and flights are designed to be dog-first – that’s right, we are currently the world’s only air travel experience designed specifically for dogs first, and their human companions second.
- Our goal is to enable dog people to be together with their dogs, no matter where they go. There’s overwhelming demand for a dog-friendly airline that allows dog parents to transport or travel with their dogs, but given BARK’s mission and ethos, we wanted to go several steps further, to create a trulydog-centered experience.
- BARK Air offers a truly unique, curated, first-class experience for dog parents and their four-legged companions.
Our History:
- BARK has always taken the approach that dogs deserve better. Better toys than what was on the market, better treats, better experiences, more innovative designs, more ways to connect with their humans, and to truly be recognized as members of the family. At BARK, dogs not only deserve better, dogs come first.
- Since 2011, we have been able to create tens of thousands of products and serve millions of dogs – and always with over-the-top, industry-leading customer service. In other words, we take more pride in knowing dogs and dog lifestyles better than any brand, and we took those learnings to heart in building BARK Air.
Our Offering:
- BARK Air leans into the difference between being tolerant of dogs vs. being truly dog first. We’re building BARK Air to give our dog passengers a first-class experience (even better than the first-class experience for humans).
- Most dog-tolerant airline services offer flights about once a month, with no return flights. BARK Air offers round-trip service for all of our routes at competitive prices.
- There are no long waits in busy terminals, no invasive TSA security protocols – your pup will be onboard minutes after arriving at the airport.
