Sorry to be a couple weeks late to this one -- must have missed when it was posted. The UK media recently brought back a 2014-era story on US kicking an ESA and associated pax off a flight for disruptiveness: http://metro.co.uk/2017/11/14/woman-...ptive-7078656/

Has the law around ESA changed, did US violate American law on ESA protections, or is the UA policy of "ESA trumps pax with allergy to ESA" a discretionary policy choice from United that other airlines don't adhere to?

What the airline did was completely appropriate.
