DOT Releases New Passenger’s Bill of Rights

In case you missed it …

The Department of Transportation released a beefed-up version of its airline passenger’s bill of rights, requiring airlines to pay for lost luggage and disclose hidden fees, among other provisions.

“Airline passengers have a right to be treated fairly,” U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood said in a written statement. “It’s just common sense that if an airline loses your bag or you get bumped from a flight because it was oversold, you should be reimbursed. The additional passenger protections we’re announcing today will help make sure air travelers are treated with the respect they deserve.”
