    Airlines make billions from excessive fees. That’s why they’re lobbying so hard against my bill to rein in their exploitative methods. The only thing airlines want to do more than raise fees is defeat this bill.https://twitter.com/AndrewTangel/status/1042775140340162560 …

    Who likes airline change fees? Passengers often don’t, but most carriers do — and they’re fighting a push in Congress to regulate the cost of altering plane tickets. Debate centers on role of government in the airline industry 40 years after deregulation. https://www.wsj.com/articles/airlines-fight-push-to-regulate-ticket-change-fees-1537451390 …

        I’d settle for a minimum seat width. Coach seats should be wide enough to accommodate people without having to hunch their shoulders or roll their arms in front of them to avoid a low-intensity insurgency over the armrest.

        Thank you, Senator Markey. @united charged me $300 to cancel a flight more than a month before my departure. I will use my remaining credit with them and then most likely will never fly with them again.

        Thank you Senator Markey, this whole bag check thing has truly gotten out of hand and consumers are displeased. Please do not give up the fight on our behalf! Thank you again!

        An “excessive” fee is one you don’t like, right? No matter that it’s in line with market rates for comparable services from other sellers and reasonably related to sellers’ costs?
