LOL — now let’s get the over-under date for somebody demanding that their donkey flies with them in Business Class.
After I was already looking forward with a smile to the possible experience of a horse of the clever “Mr. Ed” variety all seatbelted in on an aisle seat across from me as someone’s sanctioned comfort animal.
There are so many dogs and cats flying in cabin these days that at least one airport, National Airport in D.C., now has a doggy comfort room along the same terminal walls as the human rest rooms. I saw one the other day with a big welcome placard standing on the floor where people almost trip over it. The “comfort” room has got astroturf all over the ground and a great big plastic fire hydrant in the middle of the room. Here’s a photo of a smaller hydrant at
JFK. http://petfriendlytravel.com/airports I didn’t see a human sink in the one in D.C. as I glanced in, so really glad to see one here.
The following map sheds a lot of light on the trend of welcoming hairy mates at airports across America:

I wonder why pet hair doesn’t reach the threshold of peanut allergy in the airline industry. I heard a lot of allergy-like sneezing on those doggy/kitty flights.
