Plane rides can be boring and torturous. But not they let animals on planes. These cuties get to sit right along with their humans on the flight.
And sometimes they even get their own seat. Lots of these animals are service pets or emotional support pets. And while you might think these pets are just dogs, you’d be wrong. Some flights have mini horses, baby leopards, and even turkeys as passengers.
Either way, they definitely make our flights a lot more interesting. In fact, they’re the best passengers on the plane. They make flying a lot less scary and a lot more exciting. Hopefully, your next flight will have a furry friend on it.
Here are 75 of the best passengers to ever step foot on a plane:
