Strangest service or support animals that passengers take with them on a flight

Share

As a result of a lack of regulation that has led to serious safety risks involving untrained animals on Delta Air Lines flights, the airline is adding additional requirements for service and support animals. On 12 January 2016 Aviation24.be reported about an emotional support turkey on board one of Delta Air Lines’ flights. From 1 March 2018 onward, turkeys will be disallowed on board Delta flights, and with good reason.

Aviation24.be searched on twitter for more service or support animals and discovered that passengers board with a variety of animals (not always on Delta Air Lines flights), from poultry to pigs and even a horse! A selection:

Daniel The Duck

Hamlet The Beach Hog

Hobey the pig

A kangaroo

A turkey

A pony (name not disclosed)

Working for 25 years in the aviation industry, I changed my career and became a firefighter/EMT in 2021. I like to spend my free time with my two sons, girlfriend, family and friends. I love to travel, wine and dine and support my favourite football squad KV Mechelen. Once an Ironman 70.3 finisher and dreaming of completing a full distance.
