Should the feds fine airlines that keep passengers on the tarmac too long without food?

Yes. It's practically starvation.
A day late and a dollar short.
Today it was announced on the news that is just what is happening – anything longer than three hours is a $250,00.00 per passenger fine.
Works for me!
250,000 or 250.00?
Ya need to get out more . . . $250,000.00 . . . I was very specific as that is what they said on the news.
wonderful. just what we need. more government intervention in the free market system.
i don't think they should be fined. if a person takes a flight somewhere, they know what they are getting themselves into. if they end up on the tarmac too long, choose a different airline.
and who is decide what is "too long" without food? the government? i think not.
Agreed.
That is a large fine.
Then I don't need to get more, I just need to watch more television.
