The big news this week was Royal Caribbean's announcement that it is banning emotional support animals from its cruise ships.
The cruise said they were updating its policy to differentiate emotional support animals from service animals that are trained to perform a function for a person with a disability.
Moving forward, emotional support animals cannot be added to existing or new reservations. Confirmed guests who already have emotional support animals noted in their reservation will be permitted to bring the animal.
