Delta Airlines to crackdown on service animals

You are currently viewing Delta Airlines to crackdown on service animals

Delta Airlines has announced new draconian new rules concerning service animals. From CNN:

All passengers attempting to board with a service animal will have to show “proof,” 48 hours before flying, that the animal is in good health and has been vaccinated. Passengers with emotional support animals must sign a form that the animal is well behaved and won’t act aggressively. In addition they have to present a letter prepared and signed by a doctor or licensed mental health professional that certifies they need a comfort pet.

I don’t fly Delta, but usually, when one airline rolls out a new rule or fee, the others follow very quickly.

Personally, I don’t really care as long as I can continue to fly with my service pelican Randy. He’s a real godsend, especially on long flights or when there’s turbulence. Having him sit next to me really calms me down.
