An airline mishap landed a very cute corgi named Bethany in Honolulu, Hawaii, instead of Jackson, Mississippi. But she really didn’t seem to mind the mixup.
Bethany was heading from Seattle to her new home in Jackson, Hawaii News Now reports. But during a layover in Dallas, American Airlines staff placed her on the wrong flight, ultimately sending her to a tropical paradise instead. Here she is, looking rather content, as corgis so often do:
The pup’s breeder, Paul Chen, reported her missing on Saturday, and initially feared that she’d been stolen. The airline quickly realized its mistake once she landed in Hawaii. She was held under the care of a veterinarian before being sent back to Dallas to complete her original itinerary.
We can only hope that Bethany made the most of her brief tropical vacation. Maybe she even learned to surf, like another corgi we know.
