But some percent of the population and the a numbersre growing. Reporter the news 4 iteam wanted to know how often is this happening so we investigated and found the federal government is not keeping count. In 201718 and and again in 2019 congress ordered the federal Aviation Administration to detail how many allergic incidents e occurring on flights and what airlines are required to report. For the first two years they received no response. Frankly its puzzling to me that the faa is not responding in an efficient way and providing the iormation which weve requested. Reporter House Appropriations Committee Chair nita lowey new york requested ihe data. Its essent that we know. Reporter in june after the news 4 iteam began asking questions the faa issued a response to congress sayg there are currently no regulations or statutes that require airlines to report to the faa about allergic reactionv nts. The agency estimated about 90 allergic incidents a year based on National Institutes of health data thats nearly 10 years old. The faa memo says requiring airlines to tabulate cases would require new regulations and additional costs. As far as im concerned, unimaginable that the airlines cant respond appropriately. Reporter we asked the Major Airlines how many allergic incidents theyve handled. None provid us the number. Many did tell us they stock emergency kids kits, some with benadryl and but they have policies regarding the foods they serve. And though Many Airlines tell us they allow pngers with allergies to preboard to sanitize their seats the iteam found all airlines are required to. Thats becae the u. S. Departmentof transportation considers Food Allergies a disability that warrants special accommodatio accommodation. Different airlines have different policies. Reporter shes hoping the industry will come to agreement about ways to protect people with deadly allergies. What we want tdo is get in there, be swift, wipe it down, have our seat, buckle up and be ready to fly. Yo do u think if the flight hadnt been diverted you would have died on the airplane . I do.
