Thrown error does not load error route

Ember CLI
1

I have an error handling function set up in an initalizer, thus:

export function initialize() {

function report_error(error) {
	var data = {
		name: error.name,
		message: error.message,
		stack: error.stack,
		url: document.location.href
	};

	Ember.$.ajax(ENV.apiHost + '/api/errors', {
		type: 'POST',
		data: data
	});
}

Ember.onerror = report_error;
Ember.RSVP.configure('onerror', report_error);
}

export default {
name: 'error',
initialize
};

The error is being thrown in a route like this:

model(params) {
	let dts_reference = params.dts_reference;

	this.get('service').completePurchase(dts_reference).then(result => {
		if (result) {
			this.transitionTo('confirmation');
		} else {
			this.transitionTo('payment-error');
		}
	}).catch((error) => {
		throw new Error(error);
	});
}

When the error is thrown, the error handing function runs but the error route does not load. This only happens when I throw the Error from this route, when thrown in the same way from my controllers the error route loads as expected.

Any suggestions?
