We all know the Saudi royal family have a lot of money. But this is just a little bit excessive!

A Saudi prince has brought his 80 falcon birds seats on an airplane, so they can travel in comfort.

Passengers were surrounded by countless falcons.

Falconry is so popular in the United Arab Emirates that many airlines, including Eithad, Emirates and Qatar, allow a certain number of pet falcons in the cabin or in checked luggage.

In fact, so many birds fly in airplanes that the UAE government reportedly issued 28,000 falcon passports between 2002 and 2013, Gulf News reported.
