duuuuuhhhhh prager, really, these doors are the best, but these crates also break,

the old vari kennels were the best but appearently they where too expensive to stick around

Heh...that's exactly what Melba used when she shipped Eska to me!

She still sleeps in it every night...

 Duke Everything breaks,.... what we are talking about is, how fast. Actually what I am talking about here is why are SPECIFICALY Malis   not allowed on United air? Who cares and why to push this rule. 

 Another issue is ridiculous regulations on the size of crates where if the dog sits the ears must not toutch the seeling of the crate. Any 1/2 ass dog person knows that dogs are more comfortable in smaller crates. So that gives?! I have my ideas on size of crates, but I am curious what are yours. At the same time I am at lost at why Malis are excluded from shipping at all and what does the  "strong jaw " reason  actually means.

o, I agree that desire for bigger crates is human thinking, maybe even commercial origin, where the dog is more safe and comfortable in a more compact box

It just occurred to me that the "animal rights" crowd has managed to get dogs more room on a U.S. flight than I get flying coach.

It has to suit an airline somehow for it to listen to / act on what the 'animal rights' protestors want to happen ...

haha Gunter . How true. And I can make a round trip for cost of a dog being shipped one way.

@huntmutter. Yes they do. If airline kisses thatr ass the AR does not make stink around your airline. Stink is bad for business. They write articles and make sick ads on TV. And standing in front of terminals with signs about  BRUTALITY AND CRUELTY I tell you!!~!. What business wants to deal with that? Image result for animal rights protesting airlinesAn imageyear 2017

Of course ARs agenda it to stop flying animals altogether. this is just a 'BOILING FROG' approach. 

 The next step is to forbid people to have pets. And do not call me paranoid. I am not.Not about this anyway :)

Well I think you might be, slightly.Teeth SmileWink Smile  I think everyone gives Peta too much credit for how effective it is.  But that aside, the odd demo outside the airport doesn't generate so much 'fear & loathing' it'll stop United doing things for profits, as other demonstrations, over the way people have been treated down the years, have proved.  Bad publicity is always better than none.

 

On the point of the chart you provide above, its hardly surprising that the number of 'incidents' (and that category could incorporate all sorts of things, not Malis bursting out of crates and savaging people !) is a little higher than some, given the sheer quantity of "total transports" as compared to alternative airlines. Much as I agree with you that this ban is unfair, unreasonable, and probably bloody inconvenient, that doesn't detract from the fact that with that enormous volume of traffic I really do not think United is on the brink of banning animal transports altogether, whether the reasoning is about profitability OR A.R. demos. Its clearly making too much money from them to do that.

When I take a look at the chart I do wonder...
Just bad luck, bad statistics, or bad employees?
Or maybe only one freight of exotic fishes of which some died during the flight???
My guess: at least 2 Mals died during transport, and several "short nosed" breeds...
