When should an airline require an assistance animal to travel in a baggage compartment?

An airline may not require that the assistance animal travel in the baggage compartment unless the animal poses a threat to other passengers or its presence would cause a significant disruption in cabin service (for example, a miniature horse would likely not be accommodated because of its size).

Are you an owner of an assistance animal?

The Service Animal Registry of California invites you to have your assistance animal registered in order to designate its status. We also encourage you to take our online classes so you can be fully aware of your rights and gain more knowledge about your support animal.

Finally, we present to you our book entitled, “ASSISTANCE ANIMAL LAWS: LEARN YOUR RIGHTS REGARDING SERVICE ANIMALS, EMOTIONAL SUPPORT ANIMALS, THERAPY PETS, AND OTHER DOGS, CATS, AND ASSISTANCE ANIMALS” to provide you with a complete education on assistance animals.
