How to transport 80 falcons when you’re a Saudi prince
If you need to get 80 falcons moved in a hurry and money is no object, then naturally you get them tickets on a commercial airline. It’s like a bigger budget sequel to Snakes On A Plane…
And yes, there were puns.
@Khaaasteh bit of a grump not letting them watch the in-flight movie though. Unless it was Kes, which would've been a bit of a downer.

Apparently falcons are quite a common sight on planes in the Middle East – they typically fly first class – Lufthansa even has a custom-designed tray, known as the “Falcon master” for the purpose.
And in the UAE falcons even get their own passports…
