Airlines May Hide Flight Costs | Detroit News

Description

Airlines could soon advertise just the base fare — hiding taxes and fees until later — sparking outrage from experts and Southwest Airlines, who warn it’ll confuse shoppers and inflate surprise costs. The DOT argues this change boosts flexibility and still protects consumers, but critics say it erodes transparency. Public comments close August 21 — and the final decision could reshape how we book flights forever.
