How’d the flight work out? Needing to book one, looking for advice
]]>If they’re too large to fit beneath a seat they can sit at your feet and with covid-19 going on I’d assume it wouldn’t be too unlikely that someone would get the whole row to themselves.
]]>Muzzled! I am a veterinarian and this would not be safe for MANY dogs as they cannot release heat when they cannot pant. A dog that is an ESA is not going to reach over and bite you out of no where. This is a very awful thought to keep dogs muzzled for hours!
]]>I love animals and especially dogs of all sorts. But, on an aircraft where there isn’t even room to even pass in the aisles, I can’t imagine having to step over animals too. And what do you do if an animal has to relieve itself?
]]>If you are flying to the US, then the ACAA’s rules regarding ESAs apply. Under the ACAAA and related guidelines, airlines are not permitted to charge fees in connection with an ESA.
]]>I want to fly to US from UK and back with my son’s ESA and possibly my daughter’s ESA . We have contacted BA who are looking into it but is there a charge as our dogs aren’t listed as service animals with ADI and the UK don’t recognise ESAs in the same way as the US does? There is a clause on their website that ESAs are permitted only on flights to and from the US but is still a charge.
]]>ACAA rules generally apply to flights coming in and out of the US.
]]>We recommend checking in advance with the specific airline you are flying with to see what their policy is. The airline will also take into consideration the behavior of your animal companion and whether it can be comfortably placed in the space in front of you.
