The DOT is changing a number of rules relating to commercial air traffic. The public comment period is open right now.

What the DOT is proposing:

Background of the problems they see:

http://www.dot.gov/affairs/2010/Back...on%20Rule.html

My thought is we use this as an opportunity to guide the DOT rules. Goals: 1) abolish some of the bad sales and operations practices DL has. 2) In lieu of abolishing them, require they are explicitly documented in the CoC.

Click Search. You'll see the rule making documents. Click "Submit a Comment"

I would also say the rule making process isn't the venue for complaining about DL. The purpose is to comments on the rules, but I don't see an issue highlighting real world examples that will assist the DOT in closing loopholes..

Outside of voicing support for the DOT list I'm going to comment on:

A Fares treated like Y fares at DLs discretion.

What else would be appropriate to comment on?
