EVERYONE STOP WHAT YOU’RE DOING. THIS IS IMPORTANT. Apparently you can have a pet duck as an emotional support animal. Which is big news in itself, but apparently when you have a duck as an emotional support animal, it can fly on airplane with you. I know, I’m picturing a duck passed out in the window seat with a neck pillow on too, but let’s not get lost in that fantasy too long. Anyway, this all actually happened (well, not the neck pillow thing) and the man sitting next to the duck live tweeted it for all of us to enjoy.
My seatmate, CLT➡️AVL, is this handsome duck named Daniel. His gentle quacking eases the sadness of leaving #SFA16. pic.twitter.com/iDKWCceAFi

Daniel, the duck on my flight, likes to look at the clouds. pic.twitter.com/YiOjCvZ0NO
