I would always bring Prince's (RIP) medical records when we went on road trips in case he had to go to the vet away from home.
When I spoke with a Delta rep, she said documents were only required for international travel, but, as I said, I always bring mine...just in case. We just got back from Connecticut on DL, and we weren't asked for anything except for $125.00 each way.
One thing to note is that rules and procedures may vary depending on the airport, agent and stress level.
