U.S. President Joe Biden is making a final push to require airlines to compensate passengers for long delays and cancellations before his term ends. This new regulation aims to ease the financial and emotional strain travelers face when flights don’t go as planned.
With more people taking to the skies than ever before, delays and cancellations have become a common frustration. Biden’s proposed rule would ensure airlines provide fair compensation, not just vouchers or miles, when they disrupt travel plans.
This move is part of a broader effort to protect consumer rights and hold airlines accountable. By advocating for this change, Biden hopes to make air travel more reliable and customer-friendly.
As the aviation industry recovers from global challenges, these measures could significantly impact how airlines operate and treat their passengers.
