video

JetBlue Airways is facing a $2 million fine after a federal government investigation revealed that it was "operating multiple chronically delayed flights." This marks the first time the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) has imposed a penalty on an airline for consistently delaying flights. The government lambasted this action, calling it a "prohibited unrealistic scheduling practice which can harm both passengers and fair competition across the airline industry." The DOT?s order requires JetBlue to stop chronic flight delays and pay a $2 million penalty, half of which will go directly to the U.S. Treasury. The other half will be used to compensate passengers that were impacted by the chronically delayed flights or any future flight disruptions of three hours or more caused by JetBlue within the next year, the DOT said in its Friday announcement. Ryan J. Ewing with AirlineGeeks.com joined LiveNOW from FOX to discuss.
