The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

Interestingly the only paperwork you need is a document from a vet that says the animal is healthy. If the flight is more than 8 hours then you also need a document from the vet that the animal can go the entire flight without reliving itself.
I don't think that's what people mean when they say "people should be required to provide documentation when bringing a service animal on a plane".
However, in the specific case in question here, isn't someone certifying that the animal can go without relieving itself the most relevant piece of documentation? 😂
There's not really enough info in the article to say for sure, but I don't think it takes over 8 hours to fly from Houston to Seattle, so that requirement probably didn't apply.
