A diabetic passenger was barred from boarding an Aeroméxico flight despite traveling with a certified Great Dane service dog, according to reports. The incident occurred after airline staff questioned whether the animal met size requirements, despite the dog’s essential role in assisting with the passenger’s medical needs. Advocates for service animal rights have criticized the policy, arguing that emotional support animals and working dogs should be accommodated under federal regulations. The dispute highlights ongoing tensions between airline safety protocols and the rights of passengers with disabilities.
