WASHINGTON, Feb 11 (Reuters) - Major U.S. airlines on
Tuesday asked the U.S. Transportation Department to abandon a
review launched by the Biden administration over whether
carriers should be required to pay passengers compensation over
flight disruptions.
Airlines for America, a trade group representing American
Airlines AAL.O , Delta Air Lines DAL.N United Airlines
UAL.O , and others, urged the Trump administration to end the
review launched in December to take comments on whether airlines
in the United States should provide cash over carrier-caused
disruptions like they are required to do in Europe and Canada.
"Airlines do not need further incentive to provide quality
service," the group wrote.
