Flying in the mane cabin! Emotional support miniature HORSE is seen sitting on a passenger's lap on flight from Chicago to Omaha - before it's filmed trotting along through the airport

Two separate Twitter users filmed a woman travelling on a the 1hr 30min American Airlines flight with her miniature pony on Thursday

US Department of Transport has published new guidelines allowing passengers to bring the emotional support animals on domestic flights

Airlines could now face fines if they block travelers from bringing the pets onto planes if they are designated as 'service animals'

Traveling with 'emotional support animals' has exploded in popularity in recent years, with ducks and kangaroos accompanying owners on flights

First it was a kangaroo, then an emotional support duck. Now a miniature horse has become the latest unusual animal to accompany a passenger aboard a flight. On Thursday, a Twitter user by the name of Ewan Nowak posted a video to Twitter that showed the adorable tiny horse aboard a packed American Airlines plane. Nowak, who shared the clip with Storyful, says he noticed the animal shortly after boarding the aircraft which was travelling from Chicago to Omaha. The footage shows the pony fast asleep on its owner's lap on the packed plane. 'At this time we would like to begin boarding with any active duty military, families traveling with children under the age of 3, and horses,' Nowak humorously wrote.

Why can’t they all just carry teddy bears or a Snoopy? What on earth does an animal like that - exclusive of maybe a dog - do for anyone other than to draw everyone’s attention? There’s certainly would be no reason to take a second look at that woman if she wasn’t walking beside a horse in an airport terminal...Does she clean up after the animal? The world has gone mad, you are right..

And we all think we’ve heard everything - until the next day when something even more dumb comes up.

Seriously? An emergency evacuation could be for any cause, even preventative.

Sued because some “comfort pet” wasn’t allowed or sued because that “comfort pet” caused an incident.

“...Having a little trouble with this one. Is the horse emotional support for the pig or the pig emotional support for the horse?...”
LMAO!! I almost spewed lemonade all over my keyboard and screen with that one.
But back to your original question, it looks like a mutual thing....they’re in love with each other. They really should just get married....LOL. /S

Once they started letting men into the women’s room it was Katy bar the door. Nothing they come up with shocks anymore no matter how insane.

The guillotines and crematoria are now just waiting for the next non-lazy version of Obama to occupy the White House.

I don’t see any problem. You would just need a small hole in the fuselage so its head could stick out.

Yes, either way they are screwed but physical harm (and probably psychological effects on top of that) could be the basis for significant damages. There already was one guy who got bit in the face by a “comfort pet”. I wonder if he’s now comfortably retired?
