Frontier said "rodents, including squirrels are not allowed" on its flights.

When the woman was told about the policy, she reportedly refused to get off the plane.

Police were called and escorted the woman off the plane.

The airline refunded the woman's money and gave her a ticket voucher, but she says that's not enough and she plans to contact an attorney.
