An American Airlines passenger took her miniature horse — a service animal called "Flirty" — on a flight from Chicago, Illinois, to Omaha, Nebraska, on Saturday.

Photos and video posted to social media by bemused but delighted passengers showed the horse, a 27-inch-tall mare, walking around the airport, passing through airport security, and sitting quietly in a foot well during the flight.

Flirty's owner is Abrea Hensley, who sufferers from depression, severe anxiety, and PTSD, and is allergic to dogs, the most common service animal choice.

If you'd read the whole article you would see that she had a service dog but smushed it due to a fall. Maybe try putting yourself in other people's shoes before you judge.

She'll need an entire aisle of seats for horse, and an entire aisle of seats for herself.

Imagine getting the middle seat between that thing and the pony.

The horse has an emotional support human.

"Because my airport is smaller, the planes are smaller and don’t have solid bulkheads. Flirty couldn’t help jostling seat of the person in the last row of first class every time she moved. "Once we got up to cruising altitude, she took a nap and was very quiet. But she had to rebalance quite a bit while ascending and descending and kept bumping the back of their seat through the curtain 'bulkhead.'"


Imagine paying for first class and a fricking horse keeps banging your seat.

I’d much rather sit next to the horse.

It’s a cute one too

Can we eliminate that white genetic? Pale, pasty and pastry. It's the ugliest shite I've ever seen. It makes white people look terrible.

Just round up the pasty fricks and take them out.

Keep all the good looking whites with darker tones.

Why would a horse have a service animal to begin with?

Just wait until the first service camels hit the market.
