Bill 118 s 5470 aims to make changes to chapter 423 of title 49 in the United States Code. The main goal of this bill is to prevent air carriers from offering incentives for ancillary fees and from discriminating based on certain characteristics when setting fares or fees. The bill specifically prohibits carriers from offering incentives for ancillary fees, such as baggage fees or seat selection fees, in order to ensure fair and equal pricing for all passengers. Additionally, the bill prohibits carriers from discriminating based on a "covered characteristic," which could include factors such as race, gender, or disability. The bill also includes provisions for other purposes related to air travel and passenger rights.
