Delta ends ban on emotional support animals on long flights — but keeps pit bull ban
DALLAS (AP) — Time is running out for emotional-support animals on airline flights.
American Airlines said Tuesday that it will ban companion animals gradually by February 1. As required by federal rules, passengers with a trained service dog will still be allowed to bring the dog on board at no extra charge.
But owners of other pets, including untrained companion animals, will have to pay a fee. They’ll also have to put their animal in the cargo hold or a kennel that fits underneath a seat in the cabin — no more letting pets sit at their owner’s feet.
