特朗普政府取消了一项拜登时代规则, 要求航空公司提供现金补偿、膳食、住宿及重新订票, The Trump administration has canceled a Biden-era rule requiring airlines to provide cash compensation, meals, lodging, and rebooking for passengers delayed by airline-caused issues. 运输部说,该部缺乏授权支付这种款项的法律权力,并认为这项规则会造成不适当的费用,可能提高票价。 The Department of Transportation said it lacks legal authority to mandate such payments and argued the rule would impose undue costs, potentially increasing ticket prices. 这一行动维持了目前的制度,即不要求航空公司对延误提供现金补偿,这不同于欧盟、加拿大和其他国家。 The move maintains the current system where airlines are not required to offer cash compensation for delays, unlike in the EU, Canada, and other countries. 行政当局计划让航空公司在没有联邦最低限额的情况下进行服务竞争,这一转变受到行业团体的欢迎,但受到18名民主党参议员的批评,他们称航空公司在因失败而延误时支付费用为常理。 The administration plans to let airlines compete on service without federal minimums, a shift welcomed by industry groups but criticized by 18 Democratic senators who called the rule common sense for airlines to cover costs when delays result from their failures.
