Sensing this, a number of airlines have now come up with the pet policy to permit them to travel with their owners. The owners consider pets as part of their family but many times they have to be left behind. With the passing away of ace investor Jhunjhuwala, whose backing itself had provided a tailwind for the country’s newest airline, the future trajectory of the airline will be closely watched. Pets will be accepted at owner's risk and subject to requirements of the carrier. However, these pets may be carried free of charge if the dog is trained to lead the blind passenger with impaired vision and dependent on such a dog or the passenger with impaired hearing and dependent on the dog, provided this is medically supported or established. The weight limit, including the cage, will be 7 kilograms in the case of cabin and 32 kilograms in check-in. The airline will be leveraging the expertise of an NGO with respect to carrying of pets such as how to be prepared and what all things pet owners should know as well as the dos and don’ts.
