More of us are traveling with our pets. Over
63 percent of pet owners consider their pet to be part of the family and 18
percent of U.S. adult leisure travelers usually take their pets with them when
they travel, according to Travel Horizons. Airlines, airports, hotels, and other
services wanting to cater to pet owners are all making it simpler to take them
with us.
The Atlanta Hartsfield Jackson Airport has created a 1,000
square foot dog park. It is a great area
to walk your pet and let them stretch their legs and do their business before
boarding a plane. The Atlanta Airport
has two smaller pet areas as well. Clearly they know what their customers
need.
Our affiliate, Airport Park’N Bark, now offers pet
transportation as well as boarding. They
are licensed by the USDA as Intermediate Animal Handlers. They are also members of the Animal Transportation
Association. They will pick up your pet at
the airport and either take them to the Airport Park’N Bark resort OR deliver
them to your door. Of course, if you are
not able to take your pet with you, they have fantastic boarding facilities just
2 blocks away from Park’N Ticket. Airport Parking and Pet Boarding together for your convenience.
There are endless products and services aimed at pet
owners. The travel industry is finally
catching on to this trend. Check with
your airline for their specific rules, book a pet friendly hotel, and travel
with Fido!
