After Secretary Buttigieg wrote letter to airline CEOs, airlines made significant improvements to customer service plans

WASHINGTON – Throughout 2022, Americans have experienced an unacceptable level of flight delays and cancellations. When these disruptions occur, airlines are required to support passengers based on commitments made in their customer service plans, but too often passengers find those plans are difficult to understand and do not guarantee services – such as meals or hotel accommodations when they must wait overnight at an airport – even for flights that are delayed or canceled because of the carrier. To ensure the traveling public has easy access to this information, the US Department of Transportation today rolled out a new airline customer service dashboard, which includes recent improvements to customer service made by airlines at the urging of Secretary Buttigieg.

Two weeks ago, Secretary Buttigieg wrote a letter to airline CEOs informing them that DOT

The term “transfer” is used in many areas. To avoid confusion, the transportation of passengers from one agreed place to another agreed place, agreed in advance, is referred to as a transport transfer. Breckenridge airport transportation should be understood as being fully organized and the service itself should meet the stated level of safety, punctuality, and comfort level of the vehicle. The transfer is carried out by car rental companies, general transport companies, or taxi services. Our clients order most often a transportation to or from the airport.

Dubai’s Emirates airline in August announced an investment of over $2 billion to improve its inflight customer experience, including cabin interior upgrades and new menus — with unlimited caviar.

The world’s biggest long-haul carrier will be retrofitting over 120 aircraft with new interiors, as well as dishing up menus with new vegan options and cinema snacks like popcorn, Emirates said in a statement.

Other new perks for the carrier’s first-class travelers include unlimited portions of Persian caviar, paired with Dom Perignon vintage champagne.

Those investments come just as Emirates posted a $1.1 billion loss for the year ended March 31.

“While others respond to industry pressures with cost cuts, Emirates is flying against the grain and investing to deliver ever better experiences to our customers,” said the president of Emirates airline, Tim Clark.
