Original consultation
Consultation description
We are seeking views on reforming aviation consumer policy on a range of air passenger rights issues.
The proposals include:
- increasing the enforcement powers of the UKs aviation regulator, the Civil Aviation Authority
- mandatory alternative dispute resolution for all airlines
- changes to compensation for delays and cancellations
- more accessible air travel
The aviation consumer policy seeks to ensure that the rights of passengers travelling by air are better protected and that enforcement of existing rights is strengthened.
