Flight attendant asked dog to put in economy class, but dog ended up dying - US

A man in the United States has filed a lawsuit against the major airline, Alaska Airlines. The man said, "When I boarded a flight from New York to San Francisco, I was in first class.
According to US media outlets such as NBC on the 28th (local time), Michael, who lives in San Francisco, died on the 1st of this month.
On the 6th, he filed a lawsuit against Alaska Airlines in San Francisco Superior Court for damages. Michael went on a trip to New York with his father and two French bulldogs last November.
Michael bought first class tickets for his dogs and they arrived safely in New York. The dogs were in good health during their stay in New York.

He refused, saying that "it would make him anxious and excited, which could lead to extremely dangerous heart problems." However, the staff ignored Michael's explanation.
In the end, Michael complied with the flight attendant's request. "One of my dogs was
"The dog immediately began breathing very rapidly and heavily and became anxious," the report said. By the time the dog arrived in San Francisco, it had already gone into rigor mortis.
"He was like a son to me, as I don't have children," Michael said. Meanwhile, Alaska Airlines has not yet released an official statement on the matter.
The American Veterinary Medical Association recommends that "breeds such as pugs and bulldogs should travel in the cabin because they are more likely to have breathing problems during flight."
