Bark Air Is Adding 4 New European Routes for Dogs and Their Humans in 2026

"The new routes represent a major milestone for the carrier, continuing to bridge the gap between North American pet parents and European cultural hubs. Whether jet-setting pups prefer Berlin's outdoor cafe culture or exploring Stockholm's waterfront trails, these new European routes are perfect for solo travelers to explore the world with their dog by their side."

"Unlike a traditional airline, these flights operate as a shared charter with less frequency and only fly if a minimum number of passengers sign up. Tickets for the new Europe routes start at $7,850, which covers one dog and one human passenger (or two dogs if their combined weight is less than 50 pounds)."

"Onboard, all passengers are treated with spacious leather seats, curated in-flight refreshments (including bone broth), and calming aids like warm towels. Crew are trained to provide attention to the dogs throughout the flight, and there are plenty of photo ops along the way."

Bark Air, a semi-private aviation service exclusively for dogs and their owners, is expanding its European operations in 2026 with four new routes. Starting in June, flights will connect North America to Dublin and Stockholm, followed by Athens and Berlin in July. Operating as a shared charter service, Bark Air requires minimum passenger numbers to operate flights. Tickets begin at $7,850 per human-dog pair, covering one dog and one human passenger, or two dogs under 50 pounds combined. The airline provides spacious leather seats, specialized in-flight refreshments including bone broth, calming aids, and trained crew attention for dogs. Since launching in May 2024 with New York-Los Angeles and New York-London routes, Bark Air has expanded to include San Francisco, Lisbon, and Paris.
