[nagdu] Dealing with airline personnel

[debby phillips]

Hi Daryl, I certainly won't flame you.  If others do, that's 
rude.  I think it's fun to be independent in the airport and all, 
provided I don't have a tight connection.  If I only have 
minutes, or even up to an hour I will get help.  If I have lots 
of time, it's great to do it myself.  And I will continue to let 
them know I have a service dog when I fly, because I DO NOT want 
to get assigned a seat on an aisle.  And I'm not trying to make 
it harder for anyone, just being the adult I am, and making the 
choices I need to make for me and my dog.  I know how to do the 
"independent" thing in the airport, and I like doing it, but I'm 
also a practical person.  I'm not going to miss a flight on 
principle.    Debby and Neena
