Ten years ago today, the Pensacola Pup Patrol opened their paws (and their hearts) to PNS passengers.💙
Since then, our Pup Patrol teams have donated LITERAL thousands of hours to making travel a little easier and a whole lot warmer.
They’ve comforted nervous children preparing for their very first flights, helped even the most seasoned travelers find a moment of calm, supported passengers with hidden disabilities and greeted countless people with a wagging tail, a warm hug and exactly the encouragement they needed.
PNS Executive Airport Director, Matt Coughlin, personally thanked each of our four-legged volunteers, and the dedicated humans at the other end of their leashes, for the extraordinary work they do to make Pensacola International Airport more welcoming and inclusive for every passenger.
To every Pup Patroller, past and present: thank you for ten years of service, thousands of volunteer hours and more smiles than we could ever count. Our airport simply wouldn’t be the same without you.
Happy 10th anniversary, Pensacola Pup Patrol! 🐶✈️
