United Airlines put a dog on the wrong connecting flight again. A plane on its way to St. Louis was diverted in order to meet the dog’s owners in Akron, Ohio.
The passengers on the flight that was diverted due to the dog were all compensated for the delay, according to a statement from United obtained by The Points Guy. After the dog was dropped off in Akron, the passengers reached St. Louis a little over two hours later than scheduled.
Dudley’s owners were told they would be recompensated for the $348 they spent to check the dog.
Just before that incident, a French bulldog died on a United plane that was traveling from Houston to New York. The dog died after flight attendants urged the owners to put it into the overhead bin, CNN reported.
“United Airlines does not care about the safety of their furry travelers. This poor family paid $125 for their pet to be murdered in front of them. There is no excuse for the pain this family is suffering,” Lara added in the post. “Today, I boarded my last United Airlines flight.”
