    Emotional Support Companions

    Does my GS11E need a tank cover, or a sash saying "Emotional Support Companion," or something like that when I roll her into the aisle of the Airbus I'll be flying soon?

    Anything less than a half tank of gas is cool, right?

    You may need to pay for another seat for your companion.

    Have a good trip wherever you're going.

      Ive seen kittens, chihuahuas and other small critters in walmart all the time. And i think to myself that other than CERTIFIED WTH PAPERS IF ASKED FOR there shouldnt be critters in stores. If you are so emotionally unstable you need a lot more than some house pet with you.

      I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.

          I used to manage 3 hotels. One time I received a box of live crickets in the mail for a guest in our extended stay hotel. I confronted them asking why they would have live insects sent to my hotel when I pay an exterminator to kill these on a regular basis. They said they were food for their "emotional support bearded dragon".... I kicked them out.

            The only thing better than a Bearded Dragon is a Breaded Dragon, tastes like Koala

              Sorry, but that will not work.

              The rules are pretty strict for motorcycles, and shipping by air will be expensive.
              First, because a motorcycle is considered a "Dangerous Good" . That means it has to be packed/crated according to specific rules
              Second, you MUST use a company that can not only do the crating, but one that is legally able to certify the work is done according to the rules
              Third, you will almost certainly have to pay for the crated size/volume because the volume weight will be greater than the actual weight.
              Fourth....many airlines that might give discounts to other cargo may not do so with DGR items and will only carry them at full tariff, Shopping for shipping is necessary.

                I want a SE Asian Water Buffalo as an emotional support animal, they're known to not only attack humans but actually stalk them before killing.
