Senators have proposed legislation that would require airlines to offer refunds to all passengers — even those who cancel their own trips.
Markey said there is a"tidal wave of outrage that is now heading towards the airline industry.
Anna Laitin, director of financial policy for Consumer Reports, said the usual refund rules shouldn't apply during a global health emergency. Permit airlines and third-party ticket sellers to offer travel vouchers as an alternative to cash refunds, as long as that voucher is valid indefinitely and the offer includes clear and conspicuous notice of the flier’s right to a cash refund
Establish that the new right is retroactive to any flight on or after March 1, 2020, so that passengers who previously received a travel voucher, but have not used it, can ask for a cash refund now
