Equestrian Airlines: Horses Now Prefer First-Class Flights Over Truck Rides

With top-level competitions increasingly taking place in the Middle East, the equestrian world has made a groundbreaking discovery: flying is obviously better for horses than traveling by truck. After all, why endure a 12-hour bumpy lorry ride when you can enjoy a smooth intercontinental flight with in-flight hay service?

“It’s simple science,” said an industry insider. “Horses love luxury. Air travel reduces the risk of traffic jams, unexpected road stops, and—most importantly—ensures they arrive with that fresh ‘just-landed’ look.”

Meanwhile, European venues are left wondering if they should install runways instead of lorry parking. “If we can’t compete with those luxurious conditions, at least we can offer priority boarding and duty-free carrots,” one organizer admitted.

Rumors are already swirling about a new ‘Sky Stable’ frequent flyer program—because every horse deserves miles.
