I agree with JDwyer. There should be ONE rule (re time in the plane on the tarmac) for ALL FLIGHTS – and that should be a maximum of 3 hours with food, water, bathroom available after 2 hours – and airlines should be financially penalized for every passenger on the flight if they disregard the rule – and the penalty should be stiff and evenly applied. Instead of the current penalty, why not make it an even $50,000 per passenger per hour or fraction thereof? Might get their attention and some results.
I agree with mthort1 about a baggage carry-on rule that is the same at all US airports and strictly enforced.
In addition, these baggage and other fees are ridiculous and need to be regulated. While I agree with charging for more than 1 checked bag under X lb. weight, all other extra fees should be forbidden. If that does not happen, airlines definitely must tell customers when booking what fees are – and they should NEVER include a fee for water or a certain-size carry-on or to use the toilet!!
ALL carriers should list ALL separate fees and show the minimum full fare price.
