Default I also want to say

I also want to add that I never asked for the woman to be moved. I simply asked if it was allowed that she have this dog out from a carrier and on her lap. I was with my family so it would have involved moving 3 of us instead of just me, so I suppose that was why she was moved. It was my suspicion that she smuggled that dog on board. My sister has a dog and she flies with it on Lufthansa but it requires a carrier and a ticket and the carrier has a tag on it. I watched this woman de-board and took a look at the dog because I was surprised I was that allergic to something so small.
