There is a special area for pets to go to the bathroom at the airport.

Prue said Jet will not eat on the plane.

Prue said it makes traveling easier for them.

Zahra and Prue have their dogs, Pickle and Jet, with them on the flight.

There are rules about what kinds of dogs can travel on planes.

Other passengers on the flight were not worried about the pets.
