    Woman arrives with an “emotional support peacock” at Newark Airport. United Airlines allegedly refused to let the woman board the aircraft with her peacock. http://abcn.ws/2BFK9O5 pic.twitter.com/E5M9L6AfSm

        I stand with @united airlines for telling her that she can't fly with her peacock because I wouldn't want a peacock loose, they are messy and very noisy. Why does she need a service animal? What is medically wrong with her that she needs a service animal?

        hint: it’s none of your business why she needs an emotional support animal.

        Actually a business can ask what a service animal does and 2 the team can be asked to leave if the "animal" is causing a disruption

        actually they cannot ask for your medical diagnosis, which is what the op was talking about

        Replying to @tins1222 @junstar1975 and

        You are correct when you point out that the airline cannot legally demand to know the reason she needs a support animal. All they can do is point out the obvious danger of a large-plumed bird in a confined space full of passengers and deny the bird for safety reasons.

        I’d rather double up on my Xanax than put my dog through the trauma of flying and airline food.

        OPINION: This sort of discrimination is unacceptable. Our emotional support alligator should be allowed to board the plane.

        Bravo to United and Delta for saying 'Enough'to this "Emotional Support Animal" nonsense. Someone will eventually show up with an ox or a horse and claim they need it. Ridiculous.
