This time there will be room for 50 cats and dogs. 　　There will be two pilots and a pet attendant. Everything is done for the safety and comfort of the pets, Binder said. 　　Pooches and kitties wont actually get seats. Theyll travel in kennels stacked on custom-made shelves. 　　Like many flights in these security conscious days, a check-in two hours before take-off is requested. To avoid the queues -- and any potential pre-flight nerves -- check-in can be done 72 hours earlier. 　　Well be happy to board your pet at our PAWS Lodge until the flight, the companys website advertises. 　　Then its time to go to the Pet Lounge and onto the aircraft. 　　The airline asks that pets answer the call of nature while on the ground, but says they dont have to. 　　Potty breaks are very important to your pet. With the human airlines, your pet could be made to hold themselves for a very, very long time. Pet Airways monitors the last time your pet had a potty break, and makes sure that they get regular potty breaks along the way, the site says. 　　首个专载“宠物乘客”的航线将于今年7月开通，开通该航线的航空公司承诺将满足宠物搭乘航班时的一切需要。 　　公司创始人阿丽莎?宾德称，“宠物航空”(Pe
