“I think I’d like an emotional support elephant. Would that fly do you think?”
Only if it’s Dumbo. Then you wouldn’t even need a ticket.
Barbara would be appropriate for a plane. Spats and all. http://www.loveoffrance.com/mobile/Product.aspx?id=1509
Ack phone autocorrect!! that’s Babar!
Ya know, in all my years of practice, I have had friends ask me to write fake letters (nope) but never ever has a client asked for an ESA letter. Ever.
Jym, u r so lucky. I already posted about a letter I wrote for a rape patient, and I knew the dog over the course of a year. But then she tried to pass him off as a service dog, and I had to spend 6 hours dealing with lawyer for federal case. I’ve already mentioned the details, but that was it for me. I think I’ve gotten at least one call a month for a letter. I’ve lost a patient over this.
I also wrote how the last person to board my plane had the middle seat, with a smelly dog. Within 20 minutes, I was having a full allergic attack. They had to move me, even tho to a less good seat. I didn’t have to ask twice.
Oh my, @bookworm! The feds? Ugh!
And, they should have moved the person with the smelly dog, not you!!
That poor peacock. It sounds as if she is HIS emotional support, not the other way round.
He looks so adorable and domesticated perching on that baggage cart, poor thing.
There is little doubt in my mind that this was yet another “performance art” undertaking, given that she was well aware he could not get on the plane.
Hopefully they moved bookworm to a better seat!
I am wondering where that peacock was supposed to sit. It wouldn’t fit in a seat, and it wouldn’t be legal in an aisle. It would take an entire row (or more to lay down on). What is wrong with people? I am so glad the airlines are cracking down on this.
Nope, @busdriver11 , was to a worse seat. That is just not right.
Not right!!! Indeed.
That peacock would need the middle isle on a 777. His tail is soooo long!!!
I heard on the news that the peacocks owner had been told three times that the peacock wouldn’t fly and brought it anyway
The best thing I’ve seen on Twitter so far today- “Be your own emotional support peacock.”
This kind of stuff gets me so aggravated.
I bet some flights get delayed because the poor gate agents have to deal with these peacock- and other fake ESA-crazy idiots.
I agree that the peacock was either performance art or someone seeking their 15 minutes of fame. Rather than getting irritated by it, I find it amusing and also think it helps move the agenda/conversation forward about how many people abuse the ESA thing which is leading to changes for the better. Cheers to the peacock!
My emotional support is a glass of wine on the plane, preferably before we take off.
My emotional support animal is a human. Can I bring him for free? 
^^^I love that idea Sue22!
NBC’s about to do a story on the airline crackdown-as in as soon as the current commercials end.
Sue22, can your support human fit under the seat in front of you?
