It is against the law. BIG, BIG fine for the airline if they are found to be doing so. I dont know about that...we usually use United and American.....we've have always watched the dogs being loaded and the do go up the conveyor belt... The one thing I do like that they do...the flight attendend gives you the card that your dog is onboard...
