Midwest Airlines is now giving frequent flyer miles to your cats and dogs! From AP/Yahoo:
Midwest Airlines is turning to dogs and cats in hopes of wooing more consumers. Midwest announced a new program Monday that gives pets a free round-trip ticket for every three domestic round-trip flights they take with their owners.
[...]
"While in the past their owners have been racking up miles on free trips, all the pets have been getting is a pat on the head," Midwest CEO Tim Hoeksema said Monday."We decided that it was high time to throw a bone to our frequent customers -- and their best friends."
The promotion follows a similar promotion announced last week by United Airlines, which is offering pet owners 1,200 bonus miles on up to two round-trip tickets when they fly with their pets before May 27.
yes but they are not too consistant with how the pets may travel with you. If I might throw a pitch for Continental, who seem to be more carring at the initial stage. Lets see how the cats feel at the end of their 15 hour oddessy from Hilo to Houston. (9 hours in the air and a cumulative 6 hour layover...) no animals may travel in the passenger compartment from Hawaii...just the human ones and some not so human...
