Dog mistakenly sent by United to Japan returning home to his owners

After a mix-up with United that resulted in a family's dog being sent to Japan instead of Kansas by mistake, Irgo the German shepherd is returning home. According to his owners, Irgo will be traveling by private charter Thursday on a nearly 12-hour long flight, leaving Narita International Airport in Tokyo at 10:30 p.m. local time and arriving back home in Wichita, Kansas around 8:25 p.m. Irgo ended up in the foreign country mistakenly when his owner, Kara Swindle, was moving with her family and pet from Oregon to Kansas.

Swindle was traveling to Wichita with her two small children on a United flight Tuesday. 10-year-old Irgo was being flown on a separate flight the same day, KCTV reports.

You don’t mean Oscar Munoz do you? I mean what could go wrong with giving this guy the job? He probably couldn’t run Aero Mexico successfully.

Puzzling, the choice of Munoz. He is a “beaner,” not a bean counter.

His most offensive act is still speaking Spanish/Mex. In a safety video he answers, “De Nada,” to a thank you. He shoves his ethnicity in your face. I hope UAL drops him ASAP!
Good thing the dog has a Japanese Visa!
