A Southwest Airlines passenger said that she was forced to leave her pet fish behind, despite federal policies that appear to allow fish to be flown on airplanes.

Lanice Powless said that she tried taking her pet fish, Cassie, with her onto the plane recently but a Southwest employee forced her to leave it at Denver International Airport.
