My family drove 21 days and 11,000 km from Canada to Panama because the airline refused to allow our dog. It was July and the flight had a layover in Houston. I could see the problem there with the heat in the hold, but we all risked our lives and went through a lot of trouble because the airline couldn't accommodate a Shiba Inu in the cabin. The dog needed a visa for every country we passed through. With notarized veterinary report duly sanctioned by the embassy of every country. Some expired before we could make it to the border and we had to resort to bribes and other techniques to get through. It was a farce because there were stray dogs, goats, cats, pigs, and other animals crossing as they pleased at many of these borders. The airline refunded our tickets, but only after we rejected their helpful suggestion to put the dog down and fly without him. Bet you can guess the airline.
