  1. I have some questions for all you service dog owners.

     

    Firstly, I'm not picking an argument, just out of honest curiosity.

     

    One question has to do with a certain airline's rule (Hawaiian Airlines) regarding flying with a service dog on a flight of 8 hours or more.

     

    HA requires that the owner provide documentation stating that the dog will not relieve itself/relieve itself in a manner not to create a health/sanitation problem during a flight of 8 hrs or more.

     

    How can a dog owner guarantee that the service dog can hold it that long? I don't know of any human who can hold it 8 hrs or more.

     

    And how can a dog's potty break be handled on a long haul flight as stated by the airline?

     

     

    My first service dog made six round trips - Seattle/London - and my second service dog has made one trip so far. It really isn't that big a big deal.

     

    We fly business class with British Airways and I know the form your talking about re: won't relieve themself on board. I think I might have even signed it once or twice.

     

    Since we're always the first on and the last off, I'm usually looking at close to ten hours on the plane. Fourteen flights without a hiccup - maybe I shouldn't jinx it!

     

     

    We're booked on a ten day Queen Elizabeth Alaskan cruise in June, 2019. I'm undecided about taking Nico with me. It's likely I'll be spending most of the time on the ship.
