United Airlines denied a woman trying to fly with her emotional support peacock
United Airlines barred Dexter, an emotional support peacock, from boarding a flight at Newark International Airport on Saturday. From the Washington Post:
United Airlines confirmed that the exotic animal was barred from the plane Saturday because it did not meet guidelines for a number of reasons, including its weight and size.
We explained this to the customer on three separate occasions before they arrived at the airport, an airline spokeswoman said in a statement Tuesday to The Washington Post...
The peacocks owner, who was identified by the Associated Press as Ventiko, a photographer and performance artist in New York, told the news agency that she bought the bird its own ticket.
