[nagdu] air line question

[Marion Gwizdala]

Christel,
    There are no such regulations that I am aware of. When it comes to 
service dogs, especially, there are no regulations restricting the number of 
service animals on a plane. In fact, I have flown on a plane with as many as 
fifteen guide dogs on it. Advanced notification is not required, as the Air 
Carrier Access Act (ACAA) prohibits discrimination by airlines on the basis 
of disability.
Fraternally yours,
Marion Gwizdala
