Two kilos too much - nothing to do: If hangover Viktor in the Aeroflot machine from Moscow-Sheremetyevo to Vladivostok is to fly, as the ground crew Mikhail Galin know, then only in the cargo hold, not in the cabin.
But that is out of the question for the Russian. In no case does he want his ten-kilogram darling the eight-hour journey in the dark belly of the aircraft. Instead, Galin came up with something else.
According to his own information, he spent another night in Moscow and searched for a similar, but lighter cat via the Internet with friends. He and Phoebe went back to check-in the next day - this time without complications.
According to a report by the "Moscow Times", Viktor-Double handed over his legitimate owners after successful check-in. He and Viktor eventually took the business class seat.
The flight to Vladivostok seems to have been quite pleasant, photos show on Galins Facebook profile. Then he shows the nocturnal sky to the pet standing on his lap through the airplane window.
Aeroflot confirmed the case and promptly excluded the man from the bonus program. The airline had evaluated surveillance cameras and the animal lovers accused of violating rules. In addition, Galin took the cat out of his carrying bag during the flight - that too was forbidden. Cat Viktor has been making headlines in Russia for days.
