12 sport horses set off on a plane trip to Dubai from Zhukovsky aboard a Sky Gates transport plane

Last February 24, 12 sport horses set off on a plane trip to Dubai from Zhukovsky International Airport aboard a Sky Gates transport plane.
In their new residence, the "passengers" of this unusual flight will participate in sporting events and train young riders.

Considering the delicate nature of the cargo, which requires a particularly responsible attitude, the airport and airline staff treated the horses with the utmost care and attention!
The horses were accompanied during the flight by a veterinarian, as well as a representative of the Russian Equestrian Federation, to ensure their well-being at every stage of the journey.

Horse transportation on the Zhukovsky - Dubai route was carried out by the cargo airline of the Russian airline Red Wings - Sky Gates Airlines on an Ilyushin Il-76TD (RA-76822).
