His claim may be shot down because of his indignant behavior.

Redamndiculous! Why didn’t they offer her a seat in coach? First class ain’t cheap he paid for comfort if they were going to ask him to sacrifice they should’ve offered him a helluva lot more to move. American can afford a hotel room, a ticket to anywhere and a full refund. Especially to avoid a lawsuit! Good for Dana I hope he gets PAID!!!!

no. he would be considered a bumped passenger. he should've gotten double his fare, a free ticket, and a hotel room. they need to ban emotional support animals. I don't think this was racist but I do feel they put animals before people. if this girl has such issues she should drive.

I know so passengers just shit (no pun intended) out of luck lol SMH..That's not right to other
paying passengers to be subjected to that mess. This is RIDICULOUS

FOH!

I'd sue too! You pay for what You get and His money is just as good as anyone else's! My Daughter is allergic to cats, So bad that her face blows up when someone has cat hair on their clothing or Cat hair on a seat. That is just dead ass wrong, I'm angry for him!

Not too long ago I remember reading one of these alleged “service animals” bit an innocent passengers face off. If you need emotional support, take your a$$ to therapy like everyone else. Sick of people!

Allergies are covered under the American With Disabilities Act. Problems result when one disability “trumps” another.

I am allergic to dogs and other animals. Just switching seats is not enough to prevent allergy symptoms. I take 4 medications, carry epi-pens, and wear a mask. I still suffer symptoms.

Not only that, the planes do not have HEPA filtration systems. Vacuuming stirs up dust for 2 hours.

I am also terrified of dogs. What about airline passengers with animal phobias in need of emotional support?

they should warn people. I wouldn't have sat next too her and depending on the dog I probably couldn't have gotten on the plane.

They could have a separate seating area for people traveling with animals. They separate humans by class.

They don’t care because there’s no alternative to planes in some cases. Ain’t no passenger ships taking people places. Slave ships...

freighter still take passengers. anyway, some people are allergic to dogs. an airplane is a cramped space. they should warn passengers about animals on the plane.

I agree.

Girl, right! I’m terrified of dogs. It’s just not fair or safe. Animals are animals at the end of the day. Flying is stressful as is and now I have to be worried that your dog might bite me too. Smh

Human life is worthless these days. Unless you are Planned Parenthood. Fetal tissue is worth thousands.

You know how people always make jokes about white people valuing dogs, etc more than black lives? I have literally heard my coworkers say that mess out loud with pride on how they care more about dogs than people struggling because dogs are helpless. I just look at them like 😒

You are speaking truth. I see why God was sorry He created humanity & sent a flood to start over.

Wait?!?

He has a better chance of suing for being removed without his medication. They should've given him his medication.

yeah, I don't think the racism claim is going to fly. they put dogs ahead of everyone.

He can sue just like that Asian Dr did when he refused to give up his seat. The Asian guy won btw.

I am SICK of Airlines doing underhanded stuff to people of color!!!
I agree with this passenger... a DOG was given priority over this man!

I never had a problem. I'm a fly nigga😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I never had a problem... but it CAN HAPPEN!!!
I would be SICK if I had to sit next to a dog. I am a little afraid of them... I never think that when flying my seat mate could be an actual animal.

They should have special airplanes and/or special flying times dedicated for this sort of thing. My son is allergic to dogs too and moving him further away wouldn't have made that big of a difference especially on an closed airplane....

I’m allergic and what you said is true.

Bless his heart. Today the world,is so selfish and inconsiderate it will be hard for people allergic to pet dander. These fools in this board keep saying "take allergy medicine." Why expose yourself to an allergen continuously hoping that the medicine controls the histamines? Allergy medicine doesn't always work. Why don't they say that bullshit to the people with peanut allergies? Oh I forgot peanut allergies mainly affect white people so everyone even schools have banned peanuts and peanut butter.

Peace...mines are so bad I can’t smell and I have to have surgery to remove polyps in My sinuses!! It sucks bc allergy medication is a band-aid that You have to put on everyday! If not avoid what causes the allergy

Jeez those allegerns are like a death sentence to some people. I suggest you send the bill for your allergy medications, surgery, nasal spray, etc. to the corporate headquarters of the airlines, restaurants and stores that subject you to pet dander and set off you allergied. Tell them you want compensation because you suffered an injury on their property due to their negligence of not removing well known allergens from the public. They need to start displaying signs just like with the peanut allergies, saying pet dander is in the establishment. Sue they assses and they will stop. That pet dander is a dangerous a black mold to a person whose allergic to it.

Peace...Nawh I’m a veteran, so I get my meds prescribed by the VA! And my surgery w be done by them! Hopefully me saying that didn’t sound like a excuse to support suing airlines and businesses, although, there should be rules and regulations to address certain matters! I mean, I don’t wanna eat food @ a restaurant or somebody else if they got cats on the counter or playing w their pets while ur making and servicing me my food

I wont eat at restaurants that have random animals. a blind person with a service animal is fine because they usually pick an out of the way spot. but anyone else and I wont be back.

Peace...Exactly! I’ve been to a bbq restaurant that had the smoke pit in the back fenced off, only thing is, there was I guess the cook dog out there laying down and a few Asian restaurants I’ve been to have had cats in and around the restaurant and that’s not a stereotypical joke, they were there!! Thanks for comment

Cool. White people use lawsuits as a way to bully people and get their way. Trumps good for it and thats how white people bullied their pets onto plane in the first place
Blacks people only sue for money grabs, not to change an injustice
We will continue to be 2nd class if we continue down the same path.

IKR?

Allergy meds do not prevent all reactions. Epi-pens are used to buy you time to get to the emergency room.

There is NO cure for allergies!

Right! My doctor use to warn.me that he could have one asthma attack and die...so sitting on an enclosed space as such wouldn't have worked especially after he was already exposed to it. Ppl are dumb...my son had to carry an epi pen and all...the only solution is a whole nother plane..period..

I saw a big ol support animal waiting on my flight last week. Honeyyyy Lawd I was praying to all the Gods, hoping to be no where near it. The lord must’ve heard my prayers and Thank goodness I didn’t have to deal with it. Smh these support animals are everywhere.

I posted a screenshot of the SUPPORT horse SMH

I’m allergic to horses and I have animal phobias due to having been attacked. What about my emotional support?

Lol, this has me thinking that somebody will bring a snake talking bout its for support. When I succumb to a heart attack after seeing the snake, then the airline can compensate my family for my untimely death.

Omg don’t give out any ideas. This support animal mess is horrible.

Have you seen the lady who was allowed to bring her SUPPORT HORSE on the plane SMH RIDICULOUS

No I’m going to look it up. Omg I would die! No one want to smell that animal nor be near his dander in a closed plane. 🤢

I can bearly stand the smell of their SUPPORT dog's let alone a BIG HORSE...If u need that much support then u need to stay home or take your own personal vehicle or personal transportation. Uber has UBER XL just for single passengers. USE IT LOL

Smh smh smh. Their both huge with their own gravitational pull. These people irritate me, like what else did you do before this bring your animal to annoy people era.

I just posted the same then went down the comments section and deleted my own. I would have gotten a first class seat there's not enough room back there.

Riiight plus some more extras that's just RIDICULOUS they need to draw the line with these so called SUPPORT ANIMALS SMH

This is a service dog. It's a funny lookin dog, lol. Check out video.

I'm trying to figure out what happens if the horse poops on the plane everybody just supposed to be trapped smelling that BIG pile of horse crap yuuck

Rmemeber Ivan Drago in Rocky. If he poops, he poops. What you going to do other than having barf bags ready to go.
