Now I am officially confused. I thought any dog that could not fit in a carrier had to be in stowage in the belly of the plane Can you simply opt to purchase a seat for a dog in main cabin regardless of size? https://www.united.com/ual/en/us/fly.../in-cabin.html Service animals don't have to be in a kennel, but they are supposed to be sitting in the passenger's foot space. How you would accomplish that with many large dogs without using part of the neighbor's space or the aisle I often wonder as I see large dogs in the airport. |
Is it only American carriers who allow this? Wouldn't catch me sitting on a plane with a dog. |
i was disappointed to see that his thread was not about a movie sequel starring samuel l. jackson in which he utters those immortal words: "I've had it with these mother loving dogs on this mother loving plane!"

So when they got off the flight how do they send them to quarantine? Or are you able to get papers that you show the regular “human” CBP? I assumed you just couldn’t fly into the US with animals. |
I want a picture of the two of them in their Polaris seats!

These were dogs, not marsupials.
OOPS. I didn't notice that autocorrect had "fixed" my spelling. Thanks and sorry. |

https://www.united.com/ual/en/us/fly.../in-cabin.html the OP states one of the dogs had a service dog vest and the other one didn’t have one. Not sure if it is a requirement for service dogs to be “in uniform”, but if it was a pet, it should have been in a kennel and not in the Polaris cabin. I assume the GA would have enforced that. (I have always found it “interesting” that a small purse in the foot space of the premium cabin or bulkhead seats is a hazard in case of an emergency, but a large dog is perfectly acceptable) |

Is there an official UA policy for pets on seats? Totally understand service dogs laying at the feet of their owners, but what about on the seats (even with a ticket purchase)? Allergy/health concerns of passengers on subsequent flights would come into play I imagine; there are people who, with even slight exposure to animal dander, are prone to severe anaphylaxis.
