In the past, farm animals like pigs and even turkeys have eased their nervous owners by accompanying them on airplanes. Now it's one duck's turn to sit in coach.
On Sunday, Twitter user Mark Essig was delighted when he discovered a duck on his flight from Charlotte to Asheville. Daniel, a sweet emotional support duck accompanied his owner and hung out in the isle near Essig's seat. Essig proceeded to live-tweet his flight with this new feathered friend, so we could all go along for the ride.

Daniel has confirmed that not all birds are terrifying, look great in red and wag their tail-feathers when they're happy.
