I will not go into a rant here but I totally agree. The people with mental disorders should not be on a plane with a 40-70lb animal under no circumstance. Of course true service animals have a place and always rightfully so. But the wussification is worrisome and troubling for our future. I cannot wait for the airlines to put the hammer down on this crap. I have a great dog and love dogs but she does not belong on an airplane under any circumstance. The airlines just need to start an on-board pet fee, $50 per pet for a cleaning fee like hotels. Dr note or not.
Can't wait to bring my comforting pet snake and feed him mice when I get older in 12B LAX-JFK red eye.
