SA's newest airline Lift introduces dog-friendly flights - here's how it works 14 April 2021 10:48 AM Share This: "It's only small dogs for now, we'll explore cats later", says Jonathan Ayache, the co-founder of the low-cost airline Lift. Lift has launched a new offering that allows customers to travel with their small dogs on board select flights. Your small dog will now be able to travel in a pet-friendly carry bag placed under the seat in front of you. The airline's co-founder Jonathan Ayache tells CapeTalk how it'll work: Only a limited number of pets are allowed to travel on selected flights (It's 2 dogs per flight for now)
