Airlines' Tactics and the Importance of Transparency

#60 U.S. Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg and I discuss airline passenger rights! We dig into the “fine print” of airline travel so you know your rights and are fully prepared next time you travel! You’ll learn:

• What to do if your flight is delayed
• What to do if your bag doesn’t arrive on time
• The refund policies on cancelled flights
• Extra tips & tricks to know when you travel

This episode originally aired on Oct. 25, 2022, but I’m relaunching it with holiday travels in full swing so you can brush up on your rights!
