带金毛犬搬家坐上宠物专机 洛杉矶飞纽约视频四天播放近500万次
纽约内容创作者 Ethan Gaskill 近日带着金毛寻回犬 Blondie 从洛杉矶（Los Angeles）搬家到纽约，搭乘专为狗狗设计的 BARK Air 航班，从 Van Nuys 机场直飞纽约。他把全程拍成视频，发布在 TikTok 与 Instagram 上，四天内播放量分别超过270万次与220万次，合计近500万次。
他在视频中说，中大型犬能与主人同舱出行的选择不多，这趟是他和 Blondie 第一次、也可能是唯一一次尝试。航班提前一小时集合，先让同机的狗狗互相熟悉、再据此安排座位；飞行途中狗狗可以牵绳在客舱走动，空乘先送上「幼犬卡布奇诺」，再送上骨汤做的「chompagne」，临落地前还有水疗推车给狗狗做头皮按摩、系头巾、做鼻子和爪子的保湿护理，最后给 Blondie 戴上机长帽拍照留念。直飞全程约四小时。
BARK Air 由宠物用品公司 BARK 推出，自称是「狗狗优先」的包机服务，执飞纽约至洛杉矶、纽约至伦敦航线，美国国内航线单程票价约6000美元一张，含一人一犬，每班最多售10张票。视频评论区里，不少网友开玩笑说自家狗看了要「嫌主人穷」，也有人指出价格高昂。Gaskill 说，这趟飞行的奢侈之处在于安心：狗狗全程舒服地待在主人身边。
A Golden Retriever Flies From Los Angeles to New York on a Dog-First Jet, and the Video Nears 5 Million Views in Four Days
New York content creator Ethan Gaskill recently moved from Los Angeles to New York with his golden retriever, Blondie, flying nonstop from Van Nuys Airport aboard BARK Air, a charter service designed for dogs. He filmed the whole trip and posted it on TikTok and Instagram, where it drew more than 2.7 million and 2.2 million views respectively in four days — nearly 5 million combined.
In the video, Gaskill says medium-to-large dogs have few options for traveling in the cabin with their owners, and that this was his and Blondie's first — and possibly only — time trying it. Passengers arrived an hour early so the dogs on the flight could meet and seating could be arranged around how they got along. In the air, dogs could walk the cabin on leashes; crew served "puppy cappuccinos," then "chompagne" made from bone broth, and before landing a spa cart came through with scalp massages, bandanas and hydrating treatment for noses and paws. Blondie was photographed wearing a captain's hat. The nonstop flight took about four hours.
BARK Air, launched by pet-products company BARK, bills itself as a dog-first charter service flying between New York and Los Angeles and between New York and London. Domestic one-way tickets have been priced at about $6,000, covering one human and one dog, with no more than 10 tickets sold per flight. In the comments, many viewers joked that their own dogs would now judge them for being poor, while others pointed to the price. Gaskill said the luxury, for the owner, was peace of mind: the dog stayed comfortable at his side the whole way.
