So "on brand" it hurts.
MAGA is a bag of dicks. Every single MAGA hates America and everything it stands for. And they're all dicks.

The proposed rule had nothing to do with maintenance. It would have only applied when there were delays because of issues under the airlines control. The EU, Canada and the UK have similar delay compensation rules that this was going to model, and they don't have any more maintenance/safety issues than the US does.
Maintenance delays can trigger compensation. It has a lot to do with m maintenance. Maintenance is under their control, weather is not.
Okay, then why haven't planes been falling out of the sky in Europe and Canada?
If it sounds too good to be true it probably is. Airlines will just jack the prices up making air travel even more expensive and find even more ways to make the issue out of their control and not reimbursable.
Take a look at airfares in Europe and let me know if they aren't competitive. Again, somehow they have been able to make it work there, and the credible threat of a direct cost of delays/cancellations has properly incentivized the airlines to avoid them more often. This is internalizing an externality with the party who can control it, appropriately.

"Studies have even shown that these regulations have caused a decrease in avoidable delays, both in terms of the number of delays, and the length of each delay. "
Why don't you make the case that it would definitely work here? I don't think it will. You have to do the convincing, not me.
Why? Trump's the one rolling back a consumer regulation, and studies show it works elsewhere.
Really, what more do you want? Somehow I don't think there's anything that would please you, because you know, Trump cult.
Ok. Just like raising the minimum wage made restaurants unaffordable you want to ruin air travel too.
You know federal minimum wage has been static since 2009, right? Sounds like you're buying a lot of bullshit.

This is again very anti consumer and everyone is telling us profits will fall if we actually push to deliver a good service. Noone cares about service, most only care about their stock portfolio which is tied to corporate"growth" and profits and incentivizes cost savings on everything.

That sounds like BS. Airlines cut costs as much as possible as is. If they do scrimp on maintenance they need to be fined for that.
Let's not pretend for a second there's anything remotely pro consumer about this. It's just Trump screwing people so billionaires can get richer.

United and Delta each gave $1 million to the transition fund. All 3 major airlines also made public pleas next to Admin staff and Cabinet secretaries. asking Democrats to end the shutdown and pass a "clean CR".
Seems like those investments paid off. Next time an airline melts down like Southwest did a few years ago, too bad for you.
