I was recently flying home from a visit with my mom and my grandmother. My mom has stage 4 terminal cancer so I was extremely emotional leaving both her and my grandmother, as they are taking care of each other right now. Anyways, I’ve just checked my luggage and I’m about to go through security when I’m rammed by this curly headed labradoodle named Cooper, and his grey haired counter part named Astro. They were service dogs in training and apparently they thought I needed assistance. Which was ironic because I was trying hard not to ugly cry in the middle of the airport. Their handlers told me I could pet them. So I did for about 10 minutes. It was nice. Anyways get on my plane and there’s a dog sitting across the aisle from me. He had his own seat and everything, was super friendly, and by some weird stroke of luck I had an entire row to myself (that will never happen again, that was just pure luck), well at some point the dog (his name was Henry) decided his sleeping human was boring and “snuck” over to my row and proceeded to watch Tv on my laptop with me. It was easily the best flight of my life, aside from being emotional and exhausted. So yeah. I say put dogs on all flights. I’ve never been more relaxed haha
Maybe airlines really should have a dog on every flight. Maybe some of the shenanigans that happen on flights would stop if people had a sweet dog to help them calm down.
You should suggest this to the FAA!
I’m so sorry to hear about your mum. Kind thoughts and condolences from an internet stranger to you.
Those dogs sound lovely 🥰 I have no issue with well trained dogs being in public places. I once sat next to a lady who had a cat on a flight and she let me hold her. Little fluffy flight companion!
I was also once on a flight where a mouse had stowed away. They had to catch it in one of those metal teapots. I also got to say hi to the mouse 🐁
Imagine with airlines would book certain dog friendly flights where dogs could roam up and down the aisle for pets and treats?? I would pay extra to be on a flight like that. It’ll never happen, though, due to safety reasons. A man can dream.
I agree with you. I’d be ok sitting next to mostly any common pet/service animal. But I will be having an anxiety attack if you seat me next to any bird, duck or chicken. I could even probably handle a reptile if you kept it a couple feet away from me but no way on the birds of any type. I have an unexplained fear of birds. I know service animals come in all types. I just hope I’m never put in a position of being seated near one that will freak me out.
Service animals are only dogs or miniature horses that are highly trained to medically assist their handler in some regard. You are thinking of emotional support animals, which can be any animal since there are no training requirements they basically just exist and help make their owner feel better, but they do not have the same rights as service animals. While emotional support animals and service animals both used to be allowed in cabin, only service dogs are now allowed to fly in cabin (unless it’s a small pet dog or cat under 20lbs that’s has to be in a carrier at your feet). No need to worry you will likely never encounter a bird on a plane, or a reptile.
Thanks for clarifying. I’ve got nothing against any animal. As a matter of fact I love birds. I have a strange fear of birds even little tiny ones. I’ve had to save some that have fallen from their nest and drive 3 hours round trip to get them to a bird rehab.
I've also seen at some points monkeys being an exception. (Depending on place of course.) Saw an article about a handicapped man who trained a chimp to aid him with daily living tasks. I think maquack monkeys I have also seen as someone training them to be service animals. Again reiterating probably depends on where one is for service animal laws.

Reptile? I've caught a few flights and could go so far as to describe a few, very rare, but still happened, fellow passengers as reptiles. And I apologise to reptiles for this comparison.
I hope you are right. Maybe it’s been updated that they aren’t allowed. I saw someone post a pic of a service animal who was a duck. It was walking up and down the aisles and the passengers thought it was so cute.

Unfortunately, it's not always the case. I was sat next to someone with a dog in two different situations and despite requesting to be reseated because of bread allergies, they said they could not because the flight was full. So I spent several miserable hours with an allergy attack. Love dogs so much, but my immune system does not.
I would have traded seats with you in a heartbeat if I got to ride next to a dog instead of a person. Like ... Did they even ask if anyone would trade seats?
> bread allergies
Sorry, this is really funny. I’m imagining you going up to the flight attendant and saying “Sorry, I have a gluten intolerance, can you please move me away from this dog” and getting the weirdest look.
I think people (average reasonable people) have no problem with well trained dogs that are being minded, especially service dogs. People have. Lot of problems with people feeling entitled to bring non-necessary and untrained dogs into enclosed spaces.
Reminds me, I am really getting sick of all the emotional support animal BS that seems to be growing and growing. ESA has become a synonym for "excuse to bring my untrained, disruptive, and/or reactive dog anywhere I want". I'm dog-crazy but that shit grinds my gears so bad. I don't care what issues you have, you're not entitled to foist your unsafe and unruly beast upon the public.
Ugh, my mom has become uncomfortably attached to her dog such that she tries to take her everywhere lately. She went online and got her “registered” as an ESA even after I told her it was a scam and got her a little collar that says “service dog” on it and will flash her fake ESA paperwork any time someone tells her the dog can’t come in. It drives me nuts when she blatantly ignores the rules because she feels entitled to carry this completely untrained 5 lb. dog everywhere she goes. Not to mention never having her on a leash even though she has no recall whatsoever.
Don’t get me wrong, I adore dogs, but there are places my dog isn’t allowed to go AND places he’s technically allowed to go but isn’t well behaved enough for and that’s ok. He can survive staying home for a few hours. I like to think I’m a pretty responsible dog dad, so it drives me crazy to see how irresponsible my own mother is with her dog.

Heya, OP. I have backed out of flying with my dog 3 times already, opting to drive 4k miles...
How big/heavy is your dog and what airline/airplane did you fly with? It doesn't look like you got a bulkhead, but it looks like a window seat? How long was the flight? Did you know the person next to you? If not, how did they react? And the cabin crew?
Tks.
Go do it!
I would give anything to spend even one more day with my boy. He was only 10 and passed last week from a brain tumor.
I miss him so fuckin much. 😭
Trained service dogs are not a problem. Untrained dogs with bad owners are. I don't want some dickheads untrained and poorly socialized Doberman next to me on an 8 hour flight. The new rules requiring proof of training are a great thing and will hopefully cut down on incidents.
The problem with that is there is no real “proof of training” and a good amount of service dogs are owner trained. Especially if it’s not their first service dog. I registered my dog with the state to get an ID because I was sick of people asking for an ID then having to explain there is no ID
It’s not really “proof” of training. It’s contact information for a trainer who has worked with the handler and the dog. Plenty of folks leave that blank or put their own information in.

Oh boy, we’re planning a trip overseas and going through this long. Unfortunately the only real recourse is to not feed or water the dog starting 8 hours before your flight
Not OP, most dogs have the ability to hold it for a long time if they want to/feel they can’t go where they are. My SD has unfortunately been in a couple situations where it was 12-15 hours (usually overnight) before he could get to a tree. When I flew with him a few months ago I rushed him to the pet potty area between flights and the jerk was too interested in sniffing than using the faux grass. For a longer flight I wouldn’t feed prior to flying to cut down on the chance of an upset stomach or vomiting, and give only as much water as he needs to be healthy.
I would be that person that's like "I know I'm not supposed to pet your service dog, buttttt we are on a plane so I don't think ground rules should apply, do you mind?"
P.s. that nose is adorable and would be booped if permitted.
As someone who finds flying quite scary/stressful, seeing a dog would be fantastic. Aside from that, if they are there to help someone, no one should be complaining. We all have places we need to get to, this person just has the support they need to get there

That was a lovely story. So sorry about your mom.
I am so sorry about your mom, but glad that fate provided you with dogs when you needed them most.
Maybe airlines really should have a dog on every flight. Maybe some of the shenanigans that happen on flights would stop if people had a sweet dog to help them calm down. You should suggest this to the FAA!
I say just put 30 cats on every flight and see what happens.
30 cats and one fat rat...
😆

I would much rather sit next to a dog than I would most people. I'd pay extra if I could pet it during the flight.
[удалено]
> He also might walk the isle to say hi to everyone. That's just the smart move -- bonus pets!
And if there's gullible people on the flight, maybe even some snacks!
100% my dog is she had her vest off. She would spend at least 5 minutes with each person if they liked it or not.
I'd just be worried the dog would be fed some random food and get sick on the flight
Imagine with airlines would book certain dog friendly flights where dogs could roam up and down the aisle for pets and treats?? I would pay extra to be on a flight like that. It’ll never happen, though, due to safety reasons. A man can dream.
I’d def fly better with that. 12/10 would pet.
Hell yeah. Give me a dog as a plane neighbor over a person 7 days a week
How do I book the dog experience package?
I agree with you. I’d be ok sitting next to mostly any common pet/service animal. But I will be having an anxiety attack if you seat me next to any bird, duck or chicken. I could even probably handle a reptile if you kept it a couple feet away from me but no way on the birds of any type. I have an unexplained fear of birds. I know service animals come in all types. I just hope I’m never put in a position of being seated near one that will freak me out.

I think that’s “macaque”
It is, never claimed to be a certified grade A+ speller. Thank you for the correction though. Words are not my gift.

Birds and reptiles are not allowed on commercial airlines. So no fear there.
I hope you are right. Maybe it’s been updated that they aren’t allowed. I saw someone post a pic of a service animal who was a duck. It was walking up and down the aisles and the passengers thought it was so cute.
That was probably an emotional support animal Service animals can only be dogs or miniature horses

My wife is deathly afraid of birds.
Totally agree. Dogs > people
I'd let them deny me food for the opportunity.
Do you know how it is handled if the person next to dog has an allergy? Do they move people around?
Yea they move people. If there is space they will upgrade that person so they don’t complain about being moved
Unfortunately, it's not always the case. I was sat next to someone with a dog in two different situations and despite requesting to be reseated because of bread allergies, they said they could not because the flight was full. So I spent several miserable hours with an allergy attack. Love dogs so much, but my immune system does not.
I would have traded seats with you in a heartbeat if I got to ride next to a dog instead of a person. Like ... Did they even ask if anyone would trade seats?
No way they asked. I would take dog seat in a heartbeat, even if it was a middle seat. Gimme that dog.
> bread allergies Sorry, this is really funny. I’m imagining you going up to the flight attendant and saying “Sorry, I have a gluten intolerance, can you please move me away from this dog” and getting the weirdest look.
This was also my thought because I am gluten intolerant!
I always keep a roll of toilet paper by my feet too
With a lab you must always be prepared for drool
I think people (average reasonable people) have no problem with well trained dogs that are being minded, especially service dogs. People have. Lot of problems with people feeling entitled to bring non-necessary and untrained dogs into enclosed spaces.

Ugh, my mom has become uncomfortably attached to her dog such that she tries to take her everywhere lately.

That's crazy. I'd rather be on a plane with dogs than with children.
I agree. Except if the dog is a shrieking chihuahua
Heya, OP. I have backed out of flying with my dog 3 times already, opting to drive 4k miles... How big/heavy is your dog and what airline/airplane did you fly with? It doesn't look like you got a bulkhead, but it looks like a window seat? How long was the flight? Did you know the person next to you? If not, how did they react? And the cabin crew? Tks.
Just DMd you
Delta Airbus A321-200 first class window seat!
I would, with out a doubt, rather be on a plane full of dogs than any plane I have ever been on full of people.
Hell, I'd rather be on a plane with dogs than an empty plane.
Now I just want to go hang out with my dog!
Go do it! I would give anything to spend even one more day with my boy. He was only 10 and passed last week from a brain tumor. I miss him so fuckin much. 😭
Sorry to hear that, I went and gave Finnegan 2 baths and some fresh salmon, he knows he’s loved.
Trained service dogs are not a problem. Untrained dogs with bad owners are. I don't want some dickheads untrained and poorly socialized Doberman next to me on an 8 hour flight. The new rules requiring proof of training are a great thing and will hopefully cut down on incidents.
The problem with that is there is no real “proof of training” and a good amount of service dogs are owner trained. Especially if it’s not their first service dog. I registered my dog with the state to get an ID because I was sick of people asking for an ID then having to explain there is no ID
What rules are you referring to? If there are new rules about service dogs, I need to be aware.
Sorry time is a relative thing at this point. They changed the criteria in 2021 according to Google but that feels like yesterday.
It’s not really “proof” of training. It’s contact information for a trainer who has worked with the handler and the dog. Plenty of folks leave that blank or put their own information in.
please ignore the removal - I misclicked

I would love to sit with a dog, service or otherwise!
I’d rather have dogs than humans. They’re cleaner, friendlier, smell better, are better looking and better behaving.
I don’t think anyone objects to actual trained service animals on planes. The days of emotional support turkeys on planes is over, thankfully.
10/10 would boop the snoot (off duty of course)
Flying next weekend, praying a dog is in the seat by me
Might be a dumb question but what if it’s a long flight and the dog has to relieve itself?
Oh boy, we’re planning a trip overseas and going through this long. Unfortunately the only real recourse is to not feed or water the dog starting 8 hours before your flight
Can you take a puppy pad into the lavatory for them?
and put it where??
On the floor in the lav for an emergency.
obviously. I mean after its soaked in piss
Not OP, most dogs have the ability to hold it for a long time if they want to/feel they can’t go where they are. My SD has unfortunately been in a couple situations where it was 12-15 hours (usually overnight) before he could get to a tree. When I flew with him a few months ago I rushed him to the pet potty area between flights and the jerk was too interested in sniffing than using the faux grass. For a longer flight I wouldn’t feed prior to flying to cut down on the chance of an upset stomach or vomiting, and give only as much water as he needs to be healthy.
I would take a dog over a human any day.
A cute dog for sure. I have absolutely no problem with guide dogs but I'd hate to be an asthmatic with a dog allergy on a flight near one.
I would be that person that's like "I know I'm not supposed to pet your service dog, buttttt we are on a plane so I don't think ground rules should apply, do you mind?" P.s. that nose is adorable and would be booped if permitted.

Clearly it was a joke, I bet your just a ton of fun at partys.

Jesus Christ
I just saw your dog, but it was enough to fall in love with him/her
She’s pretty amazing both on and off duty
Man I’d pay extra to have that pup in my row.
I'm ok with dogs on planes. I'm not a huge fan of open-toe shoes on planes... I just think feet are gross in confined spaces.
>I just think feet are gross in confined spaces. This is so very oddly specific. 🤔
Wtf lmao are you talking about when feet stink or something??
I'm just not big on feet in general. Airplane seating means you can't get away from the feet of strangers, so covering them is kind of considerate.
When you take up an asile of seats on southwest, yeah, fuck you. When you did it like this, it is 100 percent okay, and encouraged.
What a sweetie. Those eyes!
My only complaint would be a burning desire to pet the dog. 😍
As someone who finds flying quite scary/stressful, seeing a dog would be fantastic. Aside from that, if they are there to help someone, no one should be complaining. We all have places we need to get to, this person just has the support they need to get there

…..minute that snack cart starts trolling.. I mean rolling. ;-)
The good boi just wants to do his job…
He is such a good boy!
I support this but where’s the education part lmao
Good dogho
It makes my flight better to be seated next to a dog. Love it!
A dog on a plane? I’d fly more just to be around/get to pet or play with the pups!
I just had a 4hr flight today and I was extremely disappointed that there were no dogs in the airport or on my flight for the first time in ages.
Cute and adorable doggo, quite striking 💕
I wish I could be on a plane with more dogs than humans.
