[NFB-DB] a curiosity question Hi All,

[deborah kendrick]

Doula
That is a wonderful question and one which I asked repeatedly for all the years that I flew with guide dogs at my feet. I hate the baldhead row because there is often only a curtain between you and the next section up and the dog can slide all over the place, and then, as was pointed out, whether you have a dog or not, you are not allowed to put anything at your feet as you do in every other row in the plane. Because of my additional disability, I have not been able to have a dog for a while, and so now my request for a seat, always specifies, please put me somewhere near the front, but not the bulkhead row. It's been working beautifully for me for the last several trips .
See you all very soon!

During the discussion about traveling, it came up that on an airplane in bulkhead they don’t want anything on the floor in front of your feet.  My question is, if that’s the case, why do they try to insist on guide dog users being in bulkhead?  Because obviously the only place for the dog is going to be at your feet.  Thanks, and safe travels to everyone headed for Orlando this week.
