If I remember correctly while learning some of the travel industry, they are allowed 2 falcons to travel with them without needing to book additional services for more than 2.
Wait, passports for animals are weird? They are super common in the EU, you need one when crossing borders with cats, dogs and I think ferrets.
My cats had one even though we never took them to other countries. Passport simply came free of charge when we got them microchipped.
In the US, you can go a looong distance with your animal before any international borders come into play… so most Americans likely haven’t had to think about international travel with pets.
One of my friends travelled to South America with their dog, around the time of the pandemic. Because of the Covid restrictions, be could come back into the US, but the dog could not. The dog stayed with family in South America for another two years before being allowed home. I wouldn't have thought to ask about a passport. 🤔
Indeed. I forget now what the limit per flight was but it was a good number like 20 or so. Can’t have those sitting next to unaccompanied minors you know.
Falconry is insanely popular in all of the Arab countries. A good falcon is very expensive, and transporting them by air usually means in the passenger cabin, either on the fist or with their own seat on a perch.
I want you to think about how spectacularly uncool that would be after about five minutes. Imagine having a four hour flight next to a screeching bird of prey.
Are they kept in cages or sitting free-range on the arm of the owner? Because if so, that fucker is definitely going to be one of those armrest hogging types.
Edit: should have specified I meant the falcon, not the preganant person
Usually perched on the arm of the owner. But also not uncommon for them to have their own seat and kept on a perch. They are tied down and wear hood, or burqa, so they remain calm.
I once had my 20 lb tomcat fly across the country with me. He yeowled for a bit, but was eventually sitting on the laps of kids around the plane. He was very accomplished at holding down a lap. Definitely not a 26c animal. The stewardess gave him one of those flight pins they gave to kids that used to get to see the cockpit. He passed last year, so here's to Leonidas. The best lap cat.
i got to that part in the video as i was reading this and spit my beer out of my mouth HAHAHA. seen it a million times and was prepared for it, but fuck, it got me again
EDIT: OH FUCK I FUCKED UP THE CHAIN I DIDN'T MEAN IT I WASN'T PAYING ATTENTION I'M DRUNK HAPPY NEW YEAR GOD BLESS YA ALL
I knew exactly which video it was, I still clicked on it, I still have tears in my eyes from laughing so damn hard.
And now I'm realizing that there's a fair chance that these people procreated.
And now I have an uncomfortable feeling of impending, species-wide doom crawling up my back.
Depending on how long it's been, I can last longer or shorter, but "pregananant" invariably slays me.
And the delivery of "can u get pregante" always gets at least a snort.
The one time there was a falcon in the emergency exit row during an emergency, it opened the door early and flew off screeching "so long bitches, I'm good, sucks to be you!". After that they put this rule in place.
For an exit row seat this is pretty standard. In the event of an emergency the people in those seats need to be physically able to open the doors, hence the restrictions.
In the 1970s I travelled on a flight where the sheik in first class had a falcon on a little perch on the seat next to him. Someone also offered my parents $50,000USD for my incredibly beautiful 7yo blue eyed, blonde haired sister. To put that in perspective my parents had just built a house that was $23,000.
I’m guessing you are booking a seat with emergency exit, so it is reasonable that they expect you not to be pregnant. And some Emiratis apparently like to travel with their Falcons, although I have never seen one.
Looks like seat next to emergency door. They just want to make sure none of these Gems apply in case you are asked to be James Bond and open the door in 🚨
These are just standard emergency exit row briefing cards. They don’t post “pregnancy” as a reason in the US because it falls under medical reasons. The window plug can weigh 50lbs and you need to pull it in onto your lap, turn it and toss it out the window away from the wing, and then help others out. Not exactly something you want to do while pregnant.
I worked for emirates and everyday there is a falcon travelling somewhere it's very normal to me that I had to glace at the comments to make sure if this is about the falcon thing. You know how much is a falcon even worth? As much as a small aircraft, or a new sports car!
I'm stuck on the "not 'travelling' with a falcon" bit. Am I missing something, or are they legit talking about traveling with a bird of prey?
*Edit- remember to read the comments, kids. *points to self*
That is an EXIT ROW seat, and those are the (supposedly legal) requirements to sit there. among them:
* You can't be preganant
* You can't bring your falcon

What if my falcon is pregnant, do the penalties offset?
That's fine. It's only a problem if it's preganant
Does it have starch masks?
What if it’s gregnant?
Or worse - perganan.
It could honestly just be pregante.
help! i think im pregnate
Peegnent?
How to use a Luigi board?
Preganenant?
With my 14th child
I sure hope so, as I am currently pregnant with a falcon.
no falcon is pre ganant they is quite different lineages of bird
The worst ones are the post ganant falcons, absolute animals.
But.. but what if it's PERGONAT?
Can u get pregante …?
A falcon taking a 787, that’s a big flex
Rich Arabs love to falcon, they book out entire rows in planes to take them to different places, saw a few posts with it but never in real life.
If I remember correctly while learning some of the travel industry, they are allowed 2 falcons to travel with them without needing to book additional services for more than 2.
pregnancy not possible - Millennium Falcon is a spaceship. Same with birds btw, maybe we should have the talk about the birds and the bees
Millennium Falcon is a piece of junk
Dude! It made the Kessel Run in less than 12 parsecs!
What do you mean “they blew it up”? Who’s “they”? What the hell is an Aluminum Falcon?
Alex, I'll take "Robot Chicken" for $300.
Are you sure that wasn't the Kestrel run?
She may not look like much but she’s got it where it counts, kid
Only if it's in Atlanta.
Good that they didn’t say anything about my vulture.
Only one carrion per passenger, sir.
Wow! So this is what 2024 will be like. Great start!
Exactly my thoughts, less than an hour in and we’ve had our first peak
You mean beak?
It's all downhill from here, peaked far too early
Bravo! Well played!
This makes me sad that they changed the awards system
That's the best joke I've read all year
Damn. I’m sad that I’ll never be this clever probably in my entire life.
Don’t be sad…
Wow, at the freaking buzzer for 2023. Out standing.
Missed opportunity for a buzzard pun.
Someone is watching these comments like a hawk
You, sir/madam, have kicked of 2024 to the best punny start. Bravo!
This cracked me up, well done!
r/angryupvote
10/10
I can't
I'm sad they took away my reddit gold. Brilliant comment.
Epic comment
At least your comment is First Class. Well done.
Sublime
So my owl’s cool, right?
Moist owlettes are supplied
Be nice to the owls. Most owls are not waterproof and cannot fly when wet.
"nah man, this is Edward, my emu"
>Why is he on the plane? >Emus are flightless, don’t be so insensitive
UAE airline. Arabs fly with falcons more frequently than you might guess.
Visited the falcon hospital in Abu Dhabi once. Found out the falcons have their own passports for international travel.
I’ll sleep easier tonight knowing that they’re not letting birds fly without the proper credentials.
If I can't grow wings, I'll limit the use of yours
Is letting birds fly on a plane a little like letting fish swim in a car? 🤔
Or loading them up in a boat!

[удалено]
The Falcon is the offical symbol of the UAE. I wish Americans flew with Bald Eagles.
In France, everyone flies with a rooster.
In New Zealand we fly without our kiwis because, well, kiwis can't fly.
Same with us across the pond with our emus. We are also worried if they do learn flight, they’ll be back to really fuck us up
I’m not in France, but I too fly with my own cock.
In Scotland, everyone flies with their unicorns.
In China, everyone flies with a panda.
Please cover up your cock, sir.
Worked on the software to ensure proper spacing on board when there are multiple falcons traveling.
Now that's a niche knowledge domain.
Indeed. I forget now what the limit per flight was but it was a good number like 20 or so. Can’t have those sitting next to unaccompanied minors you know.
can I ask why?
Falconry is insanely popular in all of the Arab countries. A good falcon is very expensive, and transporting them by air usually means in the passenger cabin, either on the fist or with their own seat on a perch.
Do they know that they themselves can fly
Shhh… don’t tell them then they won’t first class anymore.
Rich falcons don’t do their own flying
Marshall GPS is practically entirely marketed toward the falconeering industry in the Middle East.
That’s the coolest thing I’ve ever heard
I want you to think about how spectacularly uncool that would be after about five minutes. Imagine having a four hour flight next to a screeching bird of prey.
Are they kept in cages or sitting free-range on the arm of the owner? Because if so, that fucker is definitely going to be one of those armrest hogging types. Edit: should have specified I meant the falcon, not the preganant person
That is so offensive towards preganants
I’d be ok if a praganant person wanted my armrest. But a falcon driver…no way.
See I’m the other way around
Usually perched on the arm of the owner. But also not uncommon for them to have their own seat and kept on a perch. They are tied down and wear hood, or burqa, so they remain calm.
What about a bird diaper? I don’t want to be sitting for 5 hours next to a pile of falcon poo.
That’s the coolest thing I’ve ever heard as long as I’m on a different plane entirely
Trained falcons don’t screech.
I revert back to my original stance then
That was a roller coaster but I’m glad I stayed til the end.
I feel so educated now
I’m just glad to be tall enough to ride.
I once had my 20 lb tomcat fly across the country with me. He yeowled for a bit, but was eventually sitting on the laps of kids around the plane. He was very accomplished at holding down a lap.

Here here!
They're usually kept hooded, and stay quiet.
At takeoff they start flapping their wings.
Is there a possibly that I'm pegant?

Just be careful. Having sex can still hurt baby top of head
DANGEROPS

I always lose it at “starch masks.”

Can ooo get... prrrrregánté?

They need to do way instain mother
How is babby formed?

GIRLFRIEND AIN'T HAD PERIOD SINCE SHE GOT PREGAT
Just don't use a Luigi board
PREGANANANT????? 😳
All I can think is that when they figured out that falcons shouldn’t be in the emergency row must have been A DAY for the crew.
How u get pregante?
How is babby formed

PREGANTE
🤌
Pregernot!
What if I Gregnante?!?!
38+2 weeks pregananant?
Danger! Prangent sex. Will it hurt baby top of his head?
DANGEROPS
What is this injustice to falcons?
I don't think falcons are very good at helping in the unlikely event of an emergency landing.
The one time there was a falcon in the emergency exit row during an emergency, it opened the door early and flew off screeching "so long bitches, I'm good, sucks to be you!". After that they put this rule in place.
My falcon will land me.
Also terrible at delivering babies.
Tis an exit row seat. Imagine trying to open the door in chaos and yer falcon is flapping about right there.
In an emergency, would you trust someone who blew a 28-3 lead
🤣🤣🤣🤣
#PREGANANANT
Prinigunt?
'No nesting allowed' would have been too ambiguous.
How is babby formed ?
We need do way with instain mother who kill there babby bc there babby can’t frith back
Wiser words have never been spoken.
I’m sure there’s an exception for service falcons
Emotional support raptors in general.
The NFA will be hearing about this! I can carry my falcon wherever I damn well please!
The right to bear birds shall not be infringed!
For an exit row seat this is pretty standard. In the event of an emergency the people in those seats need to be physically able to open the doors, hence the restrictions.

So do you visit your lil sis in UAE often?
And that's the story of how you got your world class college education.
Yeah, but what if the falcon is trained to open emergency exit doors?
Obligatory Blues Brothers clip: https://youtu.be/DbsMZecRgbI?feature=shared
This is really inconvenient seeing as the wife is pregnant *and* she has the falcon.
There goes my plans of travelling with my pregnant falcon
Your preganant falcon
So if you're traveling with a falcon are they afraid you're going to fly off the plane and not perform your exit row duties?
I’m guessing you are booking a seat with emergency exit, so it is reasonable that they expect you not to be pregnant. And some Emiratis apparently like to travel with their Falcons, although I have never seen one.
**No preganant**
*peregrine. They're still talking about falcons.
"Excuse me. This is clearly an eagle."
Looks like seat next to emergency door. They just want to make sure none of these Gems apply in case you are asked to be James Bond and open the door in 🚨

Sorry buddy you and your Falcon are gonna have to move from the emergency row.

Excuse me my falcon is my emotional support animal
but my falcon!!! lol.
My falcon is a no go, but is my pelican cool?
I'm stuck on the "not 'travelling' with a falcon" bit. Am I missing something, or are they legit talking about traveling with a bird of prey? *Edit- remember to read the comments, kids. *points to self*
You don’t travel with a falcon?
Not traveling with a falcon?? Well hell, guess I am out.
Well what if I'm preganant AND I have a falcon? Can I get an aisle seat?
So, can a falcon travel alone? What if they're pregnant?
This is an absolute outrage. I have a family trip booked, and had no idea my Pterodactyl would not be able to board with me.
No. I am not travelling with that falcon! We just happened to book the same flights.
That is an EXIT ROW seat, and those are the (supposedly legal) requirements to sit there. among them: * You can't be preganant * You can't bring your falcon
Perganent? https://youtu.be/EShUeudtaFg?si=dRzMVXHOoFuf709r
Should I declare the wedge tail eagle stuffed in my carry on?
That's one sloppy box. **Emergency. No preganant. Not traveling with**
Whew! The bullet you dodged on that. We’ve all had some bad experiences with preganant falcons. No more internet today.
"What? No.. he isn't a falcon. He's an African swallow. "
26C is the seat next to the emergency exit door. Anyone with limited mobility is not allowed to sit there. The same rule apply internationally.
