- If your flight gets delayed or canceled and the weather is not to blame, then U.S. airlines may soon have to compensate you. A new proposal from President Biden would require airlines to go beyond just a ticket refund. Brian Sumers, founder and editor of The Airline Observer, discusses what passengers can expect.

We need new transportation alternatives, like high speed trains
I keep saying it over and over and over and over again and again.
This country is using 110-year old system, and they will continue to use it, until people protest for change.
USA is in desperate need of MagLev train system and HyperLoop. But the country keeps saying its too expensive.
When ever USA government says (its too expensive) its their form of way to say. (We don't want to do it). This is why in 2024 will continue to feel like we are living in the 1970's.
Same crap just a different day. The boomers don't want to change anything even when we get to 2024 and 2025. 🤷♀🤷♀🤷♀🤦♂🤦♂🤦♂
Over selling flights!!!
So... If a flight cancels, where do you put those other passengers?
“The airlines don’t like the government to tell them what to do”. WT.. neither does anybody else! It’s amazing how everyone wants to point fingers. If you don’t like something then go somewhere else. VOTE WITH YOUR DOLLARS!
The airlines are bsing, in Europe they've had the regulations in place for years yet people can fly from France to England for like $20. Here it costs at least $100 to fly from norcal to socal, airfare is too high in the US.
The average cost from Paris to UK is $86
We put our faith in CEOs and don’t ask questions as long as our 401ks look good. We’ll take getting treated like garbage by businesses for some crumbs.
It does not cost $20 to do that...
@@shiftymcgee9359 these people would eat these CEOs shoes for breakfeast over anything good for the avg consumers. I just don't get that mindset.
JetBlue is going out of business, or their tickets are going up 3 fold. Their flights are never on time.
They should carry ... straight jackets to detain people who get out of hand ....👍😊
Boooo. Schedules must be meet? At what cost to safety? Fair treatment for employees.
The travel agency should be checking it.
What happens if the FAA messes up which they seem to be doing a lot are they going to pay
...the airline pays. THIS is the problem with the regulation.
That would be fantastic for the consumer, most of whom take a real hard hit in the pocket book when airlines fail to deliver.
So it's a guarantee that the Republicans will be whining about it for years.
The White House press conference on this topic is like an informercial 😅 .... there's more....these is... I am liking the news on new travel compensation. South West needs to compensate the passengers in December. If they hav an up date system, they will be prepared.
My plasent experience during the Turkish airline over booking in Istanbul in 2015 was when they asked for volunteers to be rebook. I was on vacation so i was totally ok with staying 1 night in Istanbul merriot instead of my Rome hostel 😅. I also got a free city tour with breakfast for my long layover by choice.
Airlines don't like when the government tell them what to do to help passenger, but they bag for subsidies during COVID-19 or financial crisis of 2008.
Oh.. Reperations..why dint u say so
How about for being forced to "share" part of your seat and/or personal space with an obscenely obese person, sweaty/smelly people...people who take off their shoes....kids screaming and kicking the back of your seat the entire flight.... and so on... ?????
You bought a ticket on a public carrier. Don't like it, rent your own private airplane
@@erauprcwa FU lardass
Did he just say that customers will have to pay for those fees… ??😂😂😂😂😂😂
is it the travelers fault you can’t depart on time? Is it their fault you didn’t prepare for massive pilot retirements and prepared younger pilots ahead of time? That’s ridiculous.
Actually, yes... LOL. If you know how all of this transpired, the answer would be yes, it's the passenger's fault.
More regulations equals higher prices.
The reason why travel is awful is because the airline industry is regulated to death.
Lol guess we ought to have higher fatalities of the lower ticket prices. Think you need a history listen on air travel.
Finally!
This is what presidents should be doing. Protecting the people from greedy predator businesses.
Prices without a doubt will go up.
Tends to happen with regulation. Safety and proper service or low prices. Can’t have both in the US.
Tickets are already at an all-time high, if this regulation raise the price is higher, than I am totally against it. I fly more times than the times that I am inconvenienced.
Sounds great! Can we get cash back also when the president delays the US economy??
This will raise the cost of flights enough where you won’t have to fly Business or First Class in order to avoid the trailer park that is Coach. 😂
People need to stop using airlines, if they decide to hike up the prices purposefully to be spiteful.
Airlines need to get their act together and stop the damn delays and cancellations. As well as throwing people off the plane after the airline purposefully over booked the plane.
SERIOUSLY. people need to stop using airlines.
But of course, people are going to do what people do and continue to use them, and this is why airlines know they can abuse people. 🤷♀🤷♀🤷♀🤷♀
So the next time YOU are delayed or thrown off a plane because of overbooking. DON'T complain, Its your fault for continuing to use airlines knowing full well,
you could have stopped using it as a protest to get the airlines to behave. Until then, airlines will continue to abuse people. Because they can.
They will overcharge you by hiking up the price, because they can, because YOU allowed them to do that to YOU. 🤷♀🤷♀🤷♀🤷♀
Ok so build High Speed Rail and we won't have to worry about delays.
So you're okay with Eminent Domain?
More people means we needs more planes, more crews, more airports, etc.
It's not as easy as it's the "airlines fault". Population boom and business expansion has a hand to do with why we travel the way we do.
Good.
Tickets prices go up.. well fine, I’ll just go to cheaper flights.
Oh great...which will translate in to higher ticket costs...shortcuts in safety and more oopsies..
🙌 sweet
What a stupid move. It doesn't make sense.
Amen 🙏 ! ❤👏👏🙏
This is so stupid. Airlines were already doing this and MOST delays are due to maintenance or largely due to weather. What people don't realize, just because the weather at your destination and departure is great, that doesn't mean your crew or airplane were in those places and may have been stuck of delayed due to weather in another location, which causes a snowball affect.
Europe is not the 'gold standard'.
Incentives not fines and punishment.
Oh you mean nothing but carrots, and never use the stick? Sounds about right from the Reagonomics brain rot America has been stuck in since the 80’s. No wonder why their profit margins have never been higher.
Pete go get some Dickie and think about it
Your title is protecting our incompetent transportation Secretary. You mean, “Transportation department waited 3 years to start the process of starting to create new rules.” What a joke, Pete shouldn’t have any future in politics and I hope I never have to choose between him and some crappy Republican. If so, 3rd party it is even if the GOP sweep control.
New airlines good brother and sister and Family All business ok thanks good Family all PEACE and Happiness and Democracy in police And Democracy and peace okay
Who's gonna pay for this in the end, you are the passenger!! Another brilliant idea of clueless lawmakers in Washington!
