20 super-cute photos of animals traveling on planes
Back in the day animals weren't allowed to travel in a plane's cabin and even guide dogs caused a problem. So, we'd be left watching our beloved animal being wheeled across the tarmac only to spend hours in a freezing cargo hold, whilst we sat in the comfort of a warm, comfy cabin. Thankfully things have changed - guide dogs, pets, military dogs, emotional support animals can now all be found curled up on a seat or having a wander down the aisle!
Although places are limited, most airlines now have a policy for animals traveling in the cabin and, obviously, owners need to make sure they have the right paperwork before they board. Some may be pets, but many are 'working' animals and you'd surprised at the different species that may settle down next to you!
Here are 20 super-cute photos of furry or feathery passengers who 'decided' to take to the skies!
