Dog owners often face a dilemma before travelling: leave your beloved pet with a sitter or at a kennel? Both require quite some planning and logistics, which can be stressful and time-consuming for fur parents. Rome’s Fiumicino International Airport has sought to streamline the process by opening one of the first on-site hotels at a major European airport, following a similar initiative in Frankfurt. Dog Relais’ workers even retrieve pups from the terminal so travellers can proceed straight to their flight. “This project is fitting into a strategy to provide a very immersive experience to passengers,” said Marilena Blasi.
