The bill is supported by the airline industry, that wants to put the asterisk back in airfares. It would undo the Full Fare Advertising Rule ordered in 2012 by the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT). That rule requires airlines to advertise the full cost of a ticket, including taxes and fees levied by airport authorities and federal, state and local governments. As it’s written, airlines would be allowed to report a base fare, then separately disclose the full cost of the ticket. For example, “Airfares From Only $1*.” The president of the American Society of Travel Agents, Zane Kerby, said the bill “would allow airlines to deceive travelers about the actual cost of a flight.”
