This update includes all the incidents that have happened since the new rules went into effect in January 2015. We now have over 10 years of data… and the same mistakes keep being made over and over again. Heartbreaking.

Pet Air Incidents Through June 2013
As I reported two months ago, the DoT Air Incident Reports often fail to list one or more pet incidents that happened in any given month. The case of Victor, Lacy Horner’s dog that was lost by Hawaiian Air (and recovered – safely! – after a month), was finally added to the report during the next month. This only happened because we sent information from Ms. Horner AND several news stories to our contact at the DoT. Similarly another incident was also missing last month and was added to this latest report.
We wish the airlines would take their responsibilities more seriously and do the MINIMAL amount of reporting they have been mandated to do in a timely manner.
We also wish the government was willing to administer stringent penalties for failure to report. Maybe the airlines would take this more seriously if there was a price to pay for failing to do so.
Our work goes on and on, unfortunately…
