A Saudi Prince has bought airplane seats for the 80 falcons he purchased, a photo that went viral on social media appears to show.



The prince, whose name remains undisclosed, was transporting the birds of prey on a Qatar Airways plane, according to the Daily Mail.



The airline has thus far not denied the veracity of the widely circulated photo, purportedly taken on one of its commercial flights.



It is estimated that a plane ticket for each falcon would cost between 110 to 620 US dollars.

Comments made by users on social media were just as interesting as the photo itself. One of them had this to say about it: 'A falcon could be seated next to you if you book first class on a plane!'



A reddit user pointed that the falcons were flying economy class.
