Default To clarify: Only a service dog for a disabled person gets those special access/travel rights

Your first sentence was a smidge off. Let me know if the rule has changed.

---------------------------
DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
Office of the Secretary
14 CFR Part 382
49 CFR Part 27
[Docket 46872 and 45657--Amendment #6]
RIN 2105-AB62

...When a service animal is not accompanying a passenger with a disability, the rule's rationale for permitting the animal to travel in the cabin does not apply. While the animal may be traveling to a location where it will perform valuable services to other people, it would be subject to the airline's general policies with respect to the carriage of animals....<ul><li><a href="http://www.k9man.com/ACAA_federal_rules.htm">Travelling with service dogs -&gt; first hit</a></li></ul>

You let your dog pee on the money tree too often...

We elves try to stick to the four main food groups: candy, candy canes, candy corns and syrup.
