Royal bans emotional support animals

ROYAL Caribbean International has updated its animal policy to prohibit emotional support animals on its cruises, according to a report by CBS Miami.

The company now states that emotional support animals are not recognised by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), a move that follows a number of travel companies revising their policies on the practice such as American Airlines and Delta Air Lines.

Reservations made prior to 30 Jul will be unaffected by the change.
