Oink! Oink! Service Pig Booted Off Airline

pigShark Tank – by Javier Manjarres

U.S. Airways became the first airline to ban a pig from flying, as it booted a woman and her service pig off one of their planes for being “disruptive.”

Apparently, the airline had not seen that nifty little GEICO insurance commercial where a pig was actually allowed to board and fly the friendly skies.

The woman in question brought along her 50-70 pound porker, but it seems their level of discipline was not up to the airline’s standards.  

One passenger said the pig smelled and that they woman had it “tethered” to the armrest, allowing it to “walk back and forth” on the plane.

The crew deemed the pig as disruptive and ordered it and it’s owner off the plane before take off.

  1. Nice story, but one major error- only dogs and horses are Service Animals everything else is a Comfort Animal and not subject to ADA protections.
