Newsstand - Demand for pet-only airline crashes website
http://www.periscopeit.co.uk/website-monitoring-news/article/demand-for-pet-only-airline-crashes-website/421
Demand for a new airline that only carries pets has been so great that it caused the website to crash shortly after launch.
Florida-based Pet Airways is the world's first airline tailored exclusively for pets, which sit in the plane's main cabin. Humans are not allowed on flights - not even in the luggage hold.

But hopefully in the cockpit! :D:D:D
I don't get it. Is there that much demand to fly animals around the country without their owners?

Maybe after a divorce, both mommy and daddy want to spend time with Fluffy, but now that daddy has moved to Palm Springs to live with new mommy, Fluffy needs a way to get to daddy's house.
In other words....I don't get it either. :D

I was really hoping someone could answer that very question. The best I can figure is the website infrastructure is weak and 3 people logged in at the same time and crashed the site?
What's next? An airline for UMs?
Maybe they should have actually had a real web server. :rolleyes:
I suppose it is good marketing for them to claim that they are really in demand, but I doubt that is really the case.
