• Bark Air announced it has expanded its flight offerings since its May launch, making the luxury dog airline more affordable for passengers. The program is piloting in February with flights between New York City and Fort Lauderdale, with each flight being able to accommodate about 20 passengers and 20 dogs.

Dogs are more than man’s best friend; they’re family. And people are splurging on their dogs like never before, taking them to high-end daycare facilities, dressing them in stylish outfits, and feeding them human-grade food.
