Sharing information about the project on his social media account, Bolat stated the following:
"Whether in business or economy class, our animal friends are transported in the cabin under certain rules.
If your pet's weight, including its carrier, does not exceed 8 kilograms and the carrier dimensions do not exceed 23 cm in height, 30 cm in width, and 40 cm in length, we can transport your animal in the cabin section of the aircraft.
We are working on a 'Pet Lounge' at our Istanbul Airport to ensure that our animal friends, including those that exceed these criteria and unfortunately cannot be transported in the cabin, can spend their time before the flight in the best possible way and under suitable conditions. We aim to complete it within this year."
