I have to admit I am a little shocked at some of the comments I have read! Of course, some of them must be from the same people who given obscence stares to families that have children who are crying. How caring are they?
I adopted an abandoned puppy many years ago and without hesitation called the airline and flew my small family member back with me. The airline was not Southwest. I asked the vet if I could give my new family member something to keep him calm and so he would not become naseous. I did, and no one knew I had a puppy with me until I was leaving the plane.
I believe the size of the pet needs to be stipulated. Some suggestions on what can be given to keep the pet calm should be provided. When people are being screened the pet carrier should also be screened. Let's think of ways to be proactive instead of complain about the situation.
Yes, I am for this situation, but their needs to be strong standards and they need to be stipulated and adhered to. I look forward to traveling on SW soon with my furry friends whomever they should be. Peace
