Do I need a PSD letter to fly?

If you are flying with your psychiatric service dog in the cabin, you must submit a US Department of Transportation Service Animal Air Transportation Form at least 48 hours before your flight. While AA doesn't require documentation of your dog's PSD status, providing a PSD letter may expedite the check-in process.
