Pappas Helps Pass FAA Reauthorization Bill Including Key Measures to Protect Consumers, Improve Travel Experience

Today, Congressman Chris Pappas (NH-01), a member of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, helped pass a bipartisan package to reauthorize the Federal Aviation Administration through 2028. Pappas helped craft this package on the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee to ensure provisions are included to protect public safety, improve the travel experience, and maintain American leadership and innovation in aviation.

“It’s not news to Granite Staters that we have seen significant disruptions to air travel over the past year,” said Congressman Pappas. “I’m pleased that this bipartisan reauthorization bill not only takes important steps to maintain traveler safety and American innovation but also prioritizes measures that will protect consumers. Ensuring airlines properly reimburse passengers' travel costs when flights are delayed or canceled and minimizing the impact of widespread flight disruptions will greatly improve the travel experience and ensure air travel remains reliable.”
