[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]United has gone out of its way to make itself more accommodating of people who want to travel with their pets than pretty much any other airline. You have to wonder if incidents like this will make them rethink their policies on this and make them more restrictive.[/quote]

Huh? United has the highest rate of pet deaths on flights.

United generally sucks, we stopped flying them several years ago, their entire corporate culture is a disaster.[/quote]

Yup.  Their fatality rate is 2%, despite all their "accommodations."[/quote]

This number is a bit deceptive. United has the most accommodating policies, so a lot of pet owners who are refused by other airlines because those airlines don't feel they can safely carry the pet end up flying United instead. Since United accommodates more of these borderline cases, naturally it has more adverse incidents.[/quote]

I disagree with that. United requires a specific health check for travel within ~11 days from flight.  You can't sneak your unhealthy dog in a flight.[/quote]
