Saudi Prince purchases 80 seats on an airplane for his birds

Saudi Prince splash some serious money just to purchase plane tickets for his birds. Yes! You heard us right, for his birds.

According to The Times of India, this prince booked 80 seats for his Falcons on a Middle Eastern airplane. 

In the viral photo posted by Reddit user, Lensoo, the birds are shown on top of cloths, with bird helmets(to block their vision) and tied down to the seats--which was all required by the airline. 

The prince may have been transporting the birds for training, as falconry is said to be a popular sport amongst the affluent in the Middle East.

Worthy of note is that there were human passengers on the plane as well.
