Feds: Airlines Must Let Passengers Fly With Pigs for 'Emotional Support'

(CNSNews.com) – Pot-bellied pigs must be granted passage on airplanes if they are used for "emotional support" by their owners, states the Department of Transportation's (DOT) draft manual on equity for the disabled in air travel.

The DOT published its "Nondiscrimination on the Basis of Disability in Air Travel: Draft Technical Assistance Manual" in the Federal Register on July 5, providing guidance that allows swine on airplanes if they are determined to be service animals.
