Major US airlines are trying to cancel rules that offer protection to passengers with disabilities. These rules were introduced during the Biden era and cover people who need wheelchairs, walkers, or scooters.
The Transportation Department created these rules, but some airlines claim it went too far in its authority. They filed court documents arguing against the rules.
These disability rules aim to ensure fair treatment for all passengers. However, the airlines’ opposition has sparked concerns about accessibility and equality on flights.
