Every one of us would have had an experience of bad air service which include the tickets being canceled by the airlines or the flight getting delayed. We end up paying more than the ticket to compensate for our plans. Moreover, we lose our precious time and peace of mind.
We always wonder how are the airlines not responsible for the fiasco. Why are we not compensated for the delay or cancellation of the ticket?
Joe Bidenโs Tweet
Well, Joe Biden, the President of the United States is coming to address your airlines issues. Also, he intends to introduce a bill by the end of this year that will help travelers.
The bill will force the airlines to cater meals and hotels if the flights are delayed or canceled.
Additionally,ย Joe Biden tweeted on his official Twitter account about the announcement.ย He tweeted, โ
โWeโre proposing a new rule later this year to make it mandatory for all U.S. airlines to compensate you with meals, hotels, taxis, rebooking fees, and cash miles or travel vouchers when theyโre the ones to blame for cancellation or delay.
It matters for hardworking families.โ
Negative Twitterati Reactions
The tweet by the President of the United States has gone viral with around 1.2 million views. The announcement appears to help the citizen and shift responsibility to the airline.
However, the tweet is not welcomed by the netizens because the netizens are not happy about the announcement despite its intention to give better services. Also, the pricing shooting up is the biggest worry among the people.
However, one user replied with the same concern. He appears to be worried about the fact that the prices will go up. Accordingly,ย the airlines will have to cater for money for the cancellation of tickets or delay.
He tweets, โYou know thatโll just drive up the price of flights and make it even harder for average Americans to afford to fly, right?โ
However, many netizens feel that this is a strategy to attract voters. They had called out Joe Biden for not protecting the Borders from illegal immigration,ย and addressing the latest train derailment tragedy.
Calling out Joe Bidenโs government,ย one Twitterati Paul Aย Szypula tweeted, โ
โBiden hasnโt been to East Palestine, Ohio where Americans are still suffering from the toxic train derailment.
Instead, heโs trying to buy votes by giving people airline freebies.
And theyโre not freebies because airlines will just pass the costs on to travelers.โ
Positive Twitterati Reactions
In support of the proposal,ย a section of Twitterati is thanking the POTUS. Moreover, they are grateful for his thinking about their welfare.
Also, another user Dr. Constance Kuntz tweeted,
โThis is exquisite! Thank you for focusing on what matters and what is on the average Americanโs mind constantly in these uncertain times. This puts everyone at ease! Things just keep getting better and better wounded your and Mr. Sorosโ leadership. Thank you!โ
So what are your views on the announcement by the POTUS? Is it a genuine concern of the government for us or a strategy to vote bank? Tell us in the comment section.
