The policy change does not apply to the transportation of service animals.

As far as Northwest, when I was researching prices, the best they gave me was their warm blooded rate which was around $252.
Don't know what to tell you. NorthWest certainly has a cold-blooded rate and US Air hasn't told me no yet. You talked to people at the live animal desks?
