ETA Act of 2025

This bill would give two existing Department of Transportation rules the force of law: a 2024 rule on refunds and other consumer protections, and a 2024 rule on showing airline extra service fees. It would also require the Secretary of Transportation to issue regulations requiring airlines to pay passengers whose flights arrive late. Compensation would apply when a domestic flight arrives 3 or more hours late or an international flight arrives 6 or more hours late. The payment would be between $200 and $500, depending on the length of the delay.
