Air Canada caught in a ‘cat-22′ over feline passengers
Last month, the agency said Air Canada could either ban cats from aircraft cabins or provide a cat-free buffer zone with upgraded air circulation if there is a passenger with a designated disability arising from their cat allergy on a flight. The agency, however, stipulated that the second option was not feasible for Jazz’s large fleet of Dash-8 planes because the aircraft could not provide fully non-recirculated fresh air.
There’s a new wrinkle, says Air Canada in its written response to last month’s ruling.
