U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy will meet with airline CEOs today to discuss the future of air traffic control and consumer protections. Will we soon see Biden-era consumer protections for airline consumers gutted?
Duffy will also discuss regulatory reforms under consideration by his department. Last week, the Trump administration dropped a proposed rule to require airlines to pay European/British/Canadian-style cash compensation for delays and cancellations within its control. But airlines want more, including the items noted in the table above.
Already, the Department of Transportation said that it is considering dropping regulations that require airlines (and online travel agencies) to disclose service fees net to airfare.
