Qatar Airways announced today that they they are going to allow even more animals onboard their International flights.  Does this actually mean an increase in capacity for those flying on Economy Class?  OMG.!  Why ? Isnt it bad enough that we Business and First class passengers have to be even on the same plane?????

WT: I know what I am. I am not a person who is foul-mouthed, who uses four-letter words in his writing, who openly hates people of different culture such as the Arabs, who hates people just because they follow a religion different from theirs especially those who follow Islam, who has myopic views of the world in his puny little mind -- and then boast of being "educated" and knowing seven languages.

The airline is particularly focused on its equine cargo services, boasting that it offers “red-carpet treatment and world-class service” for thoroughbred horses, with seats provided for grooms on board its freighter aircraft.

Despite this focus on its equine business, Ulrich Ogiermann – Qatar Airways’ head of cargo – told journalists at a news conference in China yesterday that the airline was committed to providing all animals, whether they are valuable horses or domestic pets, with levels of care that meet international standards:

“We ensure the animals receive special care and treatment all the way, on the ground as well as in the air. As a committed member of IATA, we comply with the Live Animal Regulations, which set out strict guidelines regarding the welfare of animals during transportation” he said.

The airline is also keen to point out that it is committed to stopping the illegal trade in animals, both alive and dead.

In March this year, it was one of 40 companies worldwide to sign an agreement to help the transportation industry crack down on the trade of illegal wildlife products.

accha, you are also an idiot. I merely stated what Qatar Airways stated about their new service.

Surprisingly, both Brit and WT "simply failed" to understand the meaning of this post and gave it another colour. While I am not surprised at all by WT as I am aware of his "myopic views" but Brit I believe is a totally different person and he should have objected to the views presented in the post. That's what surprises me most.

marhab7: First of all what do mean by the word "cattle" and then by the phrase " that they are going to allow more animals onboard their international flights?" These are followed by your feelings that since you are a first class or business class passenger, the economy class passengers are not worth travelling on the same plane as you because you belong to a "superior class" of human beings.

Just for your information, the economy class passengers get airlines the most revenue.

OMG! You sure are a weird person with a sick outlook of life.
