UPDATE 1-US Congress passes broad aviation bill on safety and consumer rights
The U.S. House of Representatives on Wednesday overwhelmingly passed a broad aviation bill to boost air traffic controller staffing, increase funding to avert runway close-call incidents, and speed refunds for canceled flights. The 387-26 vote sends the $105 billion, five-year measure to reauthorize the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to President Joe Biden for his signature by Friday after the Senate approved it last week. The bill prohibits airlines from charging fees for families to sit together and requires them to accept vouchers and credits issued in lieu of refunds for at least five years.
