Telegirl

Thanks, everyone....I'm feeling a lot less stressed about the trip, now! B)

No, she doesn't use a harness. She was a "used bird" - (A rescue) and training in general has been difficult. I can't see her getting used to a harness any time soon. I made reservations for her, the airline knows she is coming and I traveled with her pre 9-11 and it was fine. I am just nervous about the screening, since I am sure that they are not used to Parrots.

I am traveling with my bird in November and when I was told at my local airport that I would be REQUIRED to remove my bird from the carrier and walk through the detector with it. But the TSA website says to remove if you can, but if not, request a secondary screening. Now I am really worried about going through security.
