I hope that you are correct. I have been seeing more and more very large dogs coming on board, but have not had one near me. I asked the flight attendant how they are restrained when the seatbelt sign is on, and how can such a big dog sit on the floor infront of just one seat. She said that the dogs spread out , and are not restrained in any way. I think this is dangerous if the aircraft really gets bouncing. Also, I do not want to lose what little legroom I have to any person or animal. The flight attendant told me the service dogs have priority due to ADA and a traveler who does not like it will be the one who gets moved . I always sit in row 1. If this should ever happen to me, I don't want some other seat. So I don't know what to say. I believe what you are saying with that statute, but it seems that the airlines are siding with the animals.
