(AP Photo/Julio Cortez, File)DALLAS – American Airlines is banning emotional-support animals in a move that will force most owners to pay extra if they want their pets to travel with them. The airline said Tuesday that it will allow animals in the cabin free of charge only if they are trained service dogs. The U.S. Transportation Department cleared the way for the crackdown against companion animals last month. Jessica Tyler, American’s president of cargo, said the rules will help passengers with service animals and protect employees on planes and in airports. The number of passengers flying with companion animals grew rapidly in recent years, with some saying the animals helped them overcome anxiety and other issues.

It decided that only dogs can fly as service animals, and companions that passengers use for emotional support don't count. The number of animals on planes took off several years ago, and a cottage industry grew around providing papers, doctor's notes and even dog vests for support animals. Delta Air Lines says it carried about 250,000 animals including service dogs in 2017 and about 600,000 last year. Airlines can require that service dogs to be leashed at all times, and they can bar dogs that show aggressive behavior. The Transportation Department stood by an earlier decision to prohibit airlines from banning entire dog breeds as service animals.
