In their latest attempt to destroy consumer protections the Trump administration has scrapped an Obama-era proposal requiring airlines and ticket agencies to disclose baggage fees as soon as passengers start the process of buying a ticket. The Department of Transportation (DOT) posted a notice on the Federal Register this week that it is withdrawing the proposed rule, along with another plan to force air carriers to disclose how much revenue they make from charging other ancillary fees.
The administration, which has made easing regulatory burdens for businesses a top priority, said the rules would have “limited public benefit.”

Sign this petition to Delta, Continental, American, United and every other air carrier that if they change their process of purchasing a ticket and fail to disclose each charge, including any charge for carry on bags and/or seat selection, that you will not fly that carrier.
If you want, add your Frequent Flyer number with the airline so they know we're not kidding.
