The airline industry which was propped in the pandemic up by 50 billion taxpayer pandemic dollars, is now facing a sort of payback is they have another post-pandemic service breakdown. If your flight is canceled or seriously delayed, today's proposal could get you paid.
The airline industry which was propped up during the pandemic by $50 billion dollars from taxpayers, is now facing a sort of payback if they have a post-pandemic service breakdown. Travelers would get paid for flights that are canceled or seriously delayed under a proposal floated by the Biden administration Monday.
"The European Union required airlines to compensate passengers for flight delays. The number of delays went down," said Biden."Only for domestic travel do you have no rights to get any compensation if your flight is canceled. The only thing you have a right to is a refund," said Paul Hudson, president of FlyersRights.org.
Hudson of FlyersRights also likes a European law which has "delay compensation starting at about $200. This is in addition to any refund. It can go up to six or eight hundred dollars,"
