When most people travel with animals, they travel with small lap dogs or perhaps particularly patient felines. But for one woman flying out of Newark Liberty International Airport, dogs and cats are so2017.
This unidentified traveler brought her absolutely gigantic "emotional-support" peacock to the airport, claiming that the majestic bird had his own ticket for a United Airlines flight, according to a report from Fox News. Her request was denied.
SEE ALSO:The emotional support peacock that couldn't get on a flight also has his own InstagramEarlier this month, Delta announced it would impose tighter regulations on support animals, prompting other airlines, United Airlines included, to reexamine their own rules. But it wasn't those changes that prompted United Airlines to deny the peacock its seat.
"This animal did not meet guidelines for a number of reasons, including its weight and size," United Airlines told Fox News in a statement.
It is a reasonable denial, but the whole situation brings up some interesting questions. How was the peacock going to fit in its seat in the first place? When the woman purchased a ticket for her peacock, whose name was it under? And most importantly—where can I get an emotional support peacock?
