I think it's gone too far. The provision applies to people with disability, not to any one who doesn't want to pay for their pet.
Although Airlines are allowed ask for documentation, I don't kniw how many do, for fear of a lawsuit.
One woman showed up with three dogs as Emotional Support Animals. The airline agent allowed i even though she wondered why this woman needed three dogs to support her.
How did she manage a visit to the lav?
We have elites, tall people, physically disabled people, families with children and people with ESA seeking bulkhead seats. No wants to pay for them and the airlines are not allowed to charge some. Additionally there are people with allergies.
How do airlines cater to regular passengers, elites, and disabled passengers, and separate scammers from those truly covered by the law.
