I'm skeptical about all these alleged 'support animals' that seem to be everywhere these days. I think it's just a sneaky way to bring your pet to places where normally you can't bring pets.

And a peacock, for pete's sake? Those things are loud, I can't imagine sitting next to one of those on a flight!

Quote: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.

What worries me the most is the possible distress to the animal itself, it's fine if i like my peacock with me on a flight i mean who wouldn't like their choice of poultry to go with them, but the poor peacock may not like being the experience.. selfish bastards.
