I don’t see how this won’t run afoul of the ADA. I may be wrong, but I thought the ADA forbids people from requiring documentation be produced.

You won’t even have to ask the next person who tries to board a plane with a damn duck if it’s a service animal because it has never qualified as a service animal.

Good
I had a 2+ hour flight next to an emotional support dog.  Dog was shared shitless.. literally.  Plane took off and dog proceeded to liquid shit all over owner and seat.

Only dogs are recognized as service animals under titles II and III of the ADA. This was changed in 2011.

To avoid running afoul of the ADA you are only allowed to ask two questions.

1. Is the dog a service animal required because of a disability?
2. What work or task has the dog been trained to perform?

That is it. You can not inquire anything else about the dog or the person.

Under the ADA you can remove the person and their "service" animal if the dog is out of control and the person is unable to control it.

Good, so many Amazon service dogs out there and it is annoying. I love my dogs but they are never going to Lowe’s with me.

That’s what I thought. This was in the article and threw up the red flag for me

“Airlines can require people with a service dog to turn in paperwork up to 48 hours before a flight”

The article doesn’t mention pit bull but Delta banned them immediately after this incident.

The paperwork is probably nothing more than a variation of the two questions above. There is no way they are asking for proof of the dogs training. It's probably just an attempt to discourage people from abusing the system.

The 48 hour rule is actually old. It's part of the Air Carrier Access Act (ACAA) from 1986. It originally applied if the flight was going to be longer than eight hours. Guessing the recent DOT rule may have changed that.

I've flown with my last dog over a dozen times. She was great on a plane. Put her carrier under the seat in front of me and she just went to sleep and never barked or went potty. I flew out to Arizona to get my new puppy and he did great on the plane. Planning on flying to Florida sooner or later to visit my brother and he'll go with me. There's nothing wrong with flying with your dog so long as you take the time to train it.

This is him sleeping on my hoody flying back to Chicago.

No animals should be allowed in the cabin, should be stowed in a crate as cargo if they are traveling.

Still waiting for the law that makes it legal for me to stick my finger in my ass and wipe it under the nose of anyone I see in the grocery store with their little shit dog sitting in the shopping cart.

I’d rather travel with the dogs or emotional support turkeys or whatever vs most of the people I’ve ever seen on domestic flights.

I'm hearing these animals will be treated as "animal in cabin".  The cost is $125 each way and only a certain number are permitted on each flight.

We will continue to see 30 year olds in pajamas with their chihuahua at the grocery stores.
