✍️ The US Department of Transportation has implemented new rules for airline refunds, requiring carriers to provide automatic refunds for canceled or significantly delayed flights, and to be more transparent about add-on fees.
👉 Air carriers are now required to provide prompt, automatic refunds for canceled or significantly delayed flights
👉 Airlines must be more transparent about add-on fees, such as change or cancellation fees
👉 Airlines must refund fees paid for services that didn't work out for a customer, such as paid in-flight Wi-Fi or premium seating
👉 The rules also require airlines to refund baggage fees if the baggage is delayed more than 12 hours for domestic flights or 15-30 hours for international flights

The way airlines refund or compensate you for flight delays and cancellations has changed. So have policies on misplaced luggage and fees for in-flight Wi-Fi that doesn't work.
