A client just paid $70,000 to fly a private jet across the country just for her dog. She was already in Los Angeles, while her golden retriever was still in New York. The available aircraft was a Gulfstream G550 at Teterboro that needed to be in Los Angeles later that week, so it could complete the one-way trip.
The charter included two pilots, cabin crew, and a cabin that could be configured with a bed. The passenger was a golden retriever named Billy—listed on the manifest as “Silly Billy.” The flight brought him across the country to his new home.
