Harry O. It is possible that you have found a topic where there are no words possible to sum up the stupidity of the airline in allowing this animal on board. US Airways will come to regret this day.

On the other hand ... great laugh for those of us NOT on the plane! :} :ok:

sos

sadly, there are laws which regulate such things and they make airlines take certain animals.

don't blame the airline, blame a really dumb application of a law.

the pig did not end up flying.

"emotional support" animal is something I would more expect from the UK than the USA:ugh:

Why is it I always initially misread the tail of Pegasus airlines flights - flypgs?
