Dogs are family. Every journey begins with a call to your dedicated concierge — one person who manages flight logistics, coordinates accredited vets and customs experts on your behalf, and walks beside you on the day. Small groups of around ten dogs and their owners, sharing one cabin.

One concierge. From first call to final doorstep.

Your dedicated concierge is your single point of contact — managing flight coordination, documentation, pre-flight training, and ground arrangements at both ends.

Reach your concierge by phone, WhatsApp or email from the moment you reserve. On the day, they accompany you through private-terminal check-in and boarding, and stay in contact with anyone meeting you on arrival.

Dedicated 24/7 support around your travel days.

Late-afternoon light

A slender rim highlight along seat edges, window frames, the top of a dog's muzzle. Soft long shadows.

Warm neutrals

Sand, cream, oat, deep navy. Harnesses in desaturated blue for gentle contrast.

Minimal faces

Eyes as dots, noses as simple shapes. No breed stereotypes. Relaxed posture, clear silhouettes.

Never

Cargo, crates, queues, harsh fluorescent light, saturated neon. No airline liveries or identifiable people.

LLM / artist prompt block Calm, premium illustration of a dog travelling in cabin with its human. Vector-style, soft geometry, flat colours with gentle gradients, warm sunlight from the window, subtle rim highlights on seat edges and the dog's muzzle, minimal facial detail, warm neutrals with deep navy accents, clean negative space, no airline logos, no cargo imagery.

Motion & Glow

Movement is restrained — present where it earns attention, absent everywhere else. One signature animation: the golden glow-pulse, reserved for the single conversion CTA on a screen. A long, slow cadence so it reads as breathing, not blinking.

Glow principles When motion earns its place.

One at a time

Only the primary CTA on a view ever pulses. If two buttons pulse, neither does.

Slow & ambient

A full cycle runs ~11s. Fast glows feel anxious; slow glows feel like breathing.

Glow, not grow

Only the shadow breathes. The button never scales, translates, or shifts colour.

Never

On success states, on destructive actions, on form fields, on more than one element per view, or when prefers-reduced-motion is set.
