Etihad Airways flies four wild cats to new homes in South Africa – The National

Etihad Airways has been busy transporting some extra special cargo this week as part of the airline's new Forever Home service.

Four African servals landed safely in South Africa on Monday, marking Etihad Cargo's first official operation under its new animal welfare commitment.

Rescued after being kept illegally as pets in Belgium, the big cats made the journey from Brussels to Johannesburg Airport, safely transported in crates inside climate-controlled conditions onboard an Etihad flight.
