#89 Have you ever had a canceled flight, extreme delay, lost luggage or damaged wheelchair? Secretary Pete Buttigieg, the head of the U.S. Department of Transportation, is back again here at Erika Taught Me, and he is pioneering new airline passenger rights that airlines don’t want to know about. Why? You could get automatic refunds and compensation not available before. Secretary Buttigieg also discusses the initiative to allow family seating without extra fees and improving customer service. Time to read the fine print!

Great ❤ reporting!!!!! Such legendary Wisdom ❤❤❤
Great ! Now get rid of foreign-owned tollways!
My biggest pet peeve with airlines is their constant overbooking!
It’s so they appear to fly more ppl than they do - we don’t have overpopulation just things that intentionally make things seem crowded etc
same!
Just had a major flight delay to the following day due to maintenance. Was originally told that since I had basic tickets they could not change my flights. I simply stated per DOT…and flights fixed to my satisfaction, meal vouchers given, and hotel accommodation. The website is very helpful!
Wow, Southwest must be frustrated with the new wheelchair rule because it seems like half of their passengers are on wheelchairs.
Great interview!! Thanks for all the info!!
Great info!!!
🎉Fantastic interview!
Thanks for a wonderful 👍 interview 😊!💕
Well Erika has a guest that gave some vital information that would definitely benefit the passengers. The Secretary had great information.
Thx for the important info, Erika! Y'all were both very clear and professional! Keep up the great vidz and awesomeness 💪🏼
It was factual and honest. Love that!
This was really awesome info, thank you both!
This is extremely helpful! Could you share the links!!!
This is great information
There has been a lot of videos of people complaining that its bad manners if you recline your seat on a plane because it makes the person behind you have less space. My argument is that its a feature thats built into the seat you paid for, so you should be not shammed for the use of a capability you paid for. Is there any way you could help to talk to your guest and to enable flight attendants to set a standard, maybe when they are doing the seat belt instruction,,and make an announcement that everyone should be not shamed for using their seat reclining capability?
Thank you, Erika. I and my sister and several passengers have suffer almost all the situattions you were exposing on june 18, 2024 when we were not permitted to take our flight and then just prettend that we were late for the process. We were 1.5 hrs. at the check-in wirhout been served. I will go to the goverment page as the airline have been hard to reach and communicate. The last thing they are trying is to refund with points fir future flights eith them, instead of cash for the money we spent on this airline. We had to buy another fligt on other airline to finish going to our Destination.😢
How do you get an interview with the Transportation Secretary? 😱
For propaganda
@@robertgelley6454They didn't ask for what purpose, they asked how.
What’s the dashboard info?
Thanks Erika! Can you please bring awareness to Airlines and their new NDC ( New distribution Channels) and how it impacts the consumer specifically corporate managed travel and the shift to drive business direct to airlines vs a corporate travel agency. Also in Regards to airlines offering refunds for cancelled flights…this is great but what about a rate guarantee? If one gets their money back but still have to inevitably travel to this destination? I’m visualizing a huge rate increase and am wondering if they will honor the old rate?
Thanks so much for advocating
Thank you for this informative presentation. Cheers.
Do this only applies to USA airlines?
Please remind me, how do we access the dashboard?
if you search "Airline Customer Service Dashboard" it should pop up!
Thank you, Erika.
What happens if you paid off your credit card?
🎉🎉
😂😂😂 What's with the Pete deal
A REVIEW,,,,,,,,,, AS REQUESTED
I was looking for child mattresses what a coincidence ❤
Government fees on airline flights will increase. Anytime an airline has to tell an airline how to run a business, guvernment takes more of the business.
Amazing!
Helpful information. Ever changing industry and things can go wrong and being educated on what you can do to resolve the issues are important. Feet above the ground is hell no. Banging the seat is hell no. Showers and deodorant are your friend 😂
Government running an airline. Very bad idea. This wont end well.
Like everything else, they F#$@ up💩🤮 Don't trust the government for 💩
I hate govt busy-bodies
I like the concept, but no stipulation for weather? Airlines are going to be pushing pilots to fly no matter what.
Sure the pilot can always refuse to operate but let's be real, most people are "people pleasers" and pushovers.
I don't want to see even MORE airline failures because of over regulation.
higher airfares in 3...... 2....
That’s not a bad thing. I prefer less people can afford to travel. Sounds harsh but it’s gotten out of control with “cheap” flights.
No mentions of credit. These airlines do not issue refunds, but credits. So they are still keeping our money
That's the point. They HAVE to issue refunds instead of credits.
Actually someone useful
Please have Mr. Freeze on your next video.
Nice interview; but this guest is a joke as politician
Great interview! I love Secretary Pete!
I wish Pete would run for president, he’s a level headed, smart and gets things done man.
He is a joy to listen to! I’d vote for him if he runs for President. ❤
Nothing would get done.
I hope he runs again! He’s gotten more done than any transportation secretary in the past decade!
Worst sec of transportation ever! The USA is a disaster partly because of him!
💯 agree with you! Get these POS out , liberals ruined everything 💩
I hope he runs again! He’s gotten more done than any transportation secretary in the past decade!
I loved Mayor Pete before he became transportation secretary. He is so embarrassing now!
He would’ve been a great President
💩😂😂😂
He still could be someday! :)
He’s a liberal democrat homosexual. No thank you
