While co-passengers seemed surprised by the falcons taking the flight, it seemed normal for the men who carried them into the plane.
In the video shared by the user @DonnieDoesWorld, the passengers can be seen holding the falcons while trying to find their seats on their Fly Dubai flight.
The video in the tweet has since gathered over 2.25 million views in the past three days.
It is normal for flights in the Gulf to allow each person to carry up to two falcons while taking a flight.
FlyDubai website lists their rules as "You may be able to carry falcons onboard in hand baggage but this requires special prior approval".
In their baggage policies and rules, Emirates mentions that falcons are allowed to be transported in the cabin of Emirates flights between Dubai and certain destinations in Pakistan.
