I will be commenting as well as soon as I figure out how to.  Jaws is being
stupid on my computer at the moment and I can find nowhere to comment.

Not sure who all has seen this yet but DOT has released an NPRM today
regarding changes to the ACAA.

ce-proposed-rulemaking-traveling-air-service-animals

It appears to allow airlines to require that we present documentation, and
check in in advance of the general public so that our service animals can be
observed. This is not good and very surprising considering that feedback
from people with disabilities was supposedly taken into consideration.

Will be interested to hear how NAGDU plans to respond. I plan to file my own
comments personally. I travel 1-2 times per month and having to check in an
hour advance of everyone else would be a huge inconvenience.
