A pet dies, and someone calls John Wick and it's a national story.
Most people dying on planes are dying of health issues such as heart attack or stroke, and there are probably some dying of old age as well. The airline doesn't really have anything to do with that. It happens in hotels as well. I'm sure if a person died due to a brain injury after being shaken around or being shoved in an overhead bin like some pets have been, it would make the news.
