Review for Veterans Airlift Command, Saint Louis Park, MN, USA
Jen Salvati was great in getting me a flight with my puppy that is going to trained as a therepy dog from Jackson MS to NYC. In one day we had a flight lined up. The Pilot Doug called me to make arrangements. At the last minute my 9 year old daughter asked if she could accompany me back to NYC to spend the summer with me. Doug was not only accomadating but excited to have her along. We met at the airport in Jackson. It was an awsome King Air 200. Doug and his friend Alan A very accomplished pilot himself and a Vietnam Marine Corps Combat Veteran were very gracious. They treated us like royalty. My daughter got to "fly" the plane at 27,000 feet. The puppy enjoyed getting to stretch out in the isle and soak up the cold A/C. We landed in West Virginia to walk the puppy and they treatec us to a great lunch with the beautiful West Virginia mountains in the background. Thenm it was off to our final destination a small airport in Connecticut. When we landed my friend Ace a wounded Iraq war veteran was allowed to drive his car on the runway to the plane to pick us up. He was rather excited just to get to do that. Everyone involved in helping make this great trip happen was were more the amazing! Thank you so much from my daughter Lizzy, the puppy Pepe and myself. LT Mark Infantry
