A Saudi royal once reserved 80 plane seats, not for people, but for his falcons.
In Saudi Arabia, falcons are more than animals — they’re symbols of pride, heritage, and nobility. Falconry has been practiced in the Arabian Peninsula for thousands of years, once essential for hunting in the harsh desert. Today, it’s a respected sport and tradition, especially among royals.
Some falcons are worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, and their passports allow them to travel across the Gulf. They’re often treated like royalty — literally.
So next time you complain about a middle seat… just know a falcon might be flying more luxuriously than you.
