Virgin Australia are saying they are going to allow dogs and cats to travel in the passenger parts of planes. Personally I think this is not a good idea, particularly if something dangerous were to occur and there had to be a forced landing. I wouldn’t use that company if they decide on this. Back to the dreaded Qantas for me!

Just imagine someone with an XL Bully on deck on a ferry.

Thank you. Yes, he is one in a long line of dogs who have travelled the seas with us. We are always considerate to other travellers, we even put a muzzle on him as requested on the car deck, not that he even flinches.
