Hard to defend Carnival after this last cruise
Just got off the Horizon and honestly… I get the “Walmart of the Seas” comments now. We were in a Havana Cabana and on day one started hearing these small dogs barking nonstop. Ran into them later and yeah… really hard to believe they were legit service animals. Kind of killed...

Crew shut down a fake service animal fast and it was amazing to watch
On AA 2339 right now and someone boarded with a so called service dog that immediately started yipping at passengers. Flight attendant took one look, exchanged a glance with the rest of the crew, and within five minutes a few employees came on and escorted the passenger and dog...

Fake “service” dogs are getting completely out of hand
I’m so tired of this. First class, 6.5 hour transcon, and there’s a massive doodle that clearly isn’t trained, misbehaving the whole time. This isn’t about disliking dogs. It’s about people deciding the rules don’t apply to them because they want to bring their pet everywhere....

Flying with a pet feels broken right now
We flew with our small dog recently and did everything by the book. Booked him early, paid the fee, bought a carrier that fits the rules. Tried to be responsible. Delta somehow overbooked pets on the flight, so we had to show up super early just to make sure he’d even be allowed...

Airbnb forced us to cancel a $10k booking and suspended our account over a dog we don’t allow
Long time Superhosts here, almost 100 five star reviews, but this experience has been unreal. We listed our primary home for the first time this winter while we planned a short trip south. We turned off Instant Book, set a high nightly rate and a 10 night minimum, and were fine...

The fake service animal situation has gotten ridiculous
This sounds like pure chaos, and I don’t blame you for being frustrated. Actual service animals are trained to ignore each other and stay calm. Two dogs immediately going at it is the biggest tell that at least one of them shouldn’t be there. What kills me is how it turns into...

Looking for two people flying LAX to HND on Jan 4 or 5
Total long shot, but I’m trying to find two people already booked on (or open to booking) the 11:30am LAX to HND United flight on January 4 or 5. I’m moving to Tokyo with my cats and the two people who were supposed to help just had a family emergency, so I’m stuck. All you’d...

UA297 passenger seen hitting her service dog… not sure who to report this to
Saw this at the gate today: a black lab peed on the carpet, and the girl with him smacked the dog and dragged him along like nothing happened. Then she hit him again on the head a little farther down. Now she’s boarding with him like it’s all normal. I honestly felt sick...

Wheelchair assistance missing at DEN, how do I get United to respond?
Returned from an international trip to DEN and no wheelchair or attendant was waiting, even though it was on my reservation. I had to walk the whole jet bridge while my husband and other passengers told the gate agent I needed help. Agent claimed it wasn’t listed, even though I...

United moved my 5yo with medical issues away from us “to accommodate disabilities”?
Booked First from EWR–MCO for me, hubby, and our 5yo (severe allergies). We had 4A/4B/1E so one of us could sit with her. Checked today and saw her seat had been moved no notice. Agent said the computer did it “to accommodate passengers with medical disabilities.” I explained...

Frontier removed me from flight even after approving my service animal paperwork
Booked a flight a week ago, filed my service animal paperwork right away, and got email confirmation the same day that everything was approved. At boarding today, Frontier’s CRO came on the plane before taxi and told me my dog wasn’t listed in their system. I showed the email...

Saw a disabled passenger get scolded for not checking her bag
A couple weeks ago on a Southwest flight, a woman with limited mobility in one arm needed a little help lifting her carry-on. A flight attendant chewed her out in front of everyone for not checking it. It felt wrong to watch and not speak up are passengers with disabilities...

Guy admits mid-flight his huge dog isn’t a service animal
UA1536, Newark to Denver. I’m in Comfort Plus bulkhead when a guy boards last with a 90-lb dog and says, “Hope you’re dog people!” Dog sprawls across my feet and the window passenger’s, blocks the aisle a few times, and the crew doesn’t seem to care. As we’re landing, the guy...

Fake service dogs grind my gears
What really bugs me is people passing off pets as service animals. I’ve got a friend whose kid has T1 diabetes and his service dog is the real deal. But now they get questioned all the time because so many folks abuse the system just to bring their dog along. Makes it harder for...

Fake “service dog” on my Delta flight
Had a Frenchie onboard today wearing a service vest. Dog was straining at the leash, sniffing people, tried to wander into the galley and even the cockpit. If you wanna bring your pet, fine, but don’t ruin it for people with real service dogs.
