What's Happening Now
I agree with many others that even 3 hours is too long..I think it should be 2 and should apply to all flights regardless of what airport, airline, destination, etc. People are people no matter where they are and should not be subjected to being miserable after paying a fee to fly somewhere! Personally I have anxiety issues and not being able to get out of an enclosed space is extremely stressful. I think the airlines will now be forced to do all they can to prevent these delays. Even though all will not be possible to prevent I think there will be much less episodes wtih these new rules. As far as notification as to what is happening–I think it goes a LONG ways to alleviate frustration if we were informed in detail every 30 minutes. I have been stranded on a plane 3 times–thankfully… more »
Thanks for the contribution Mom.
Do you think that the rule should be a 3-hour limit at these smaller airports or would you suggest a different rule?

We fly out of a small airport on small feeder planes marked as related to USAIR, Delta, and soon American. Whenever there is a tie up at the hub, these are the planes that have to sit …their takeoff is predicated on space for them to land at ATL and CLT. I think these carriers should be under the same regs. as the big boys.
Agree with mezo. Even 2 hrs is too much if weather is hot, small children are among passengers. Either get the plane in the air or take passengers off.
