Travelers just lost a travel benefit that was introduced in 2024

The Trump administration would no longer pursue the plan to require airlines to compensate passengers for flight delays — a rule previously introduced by the Biden administration that would have offered $200 to $300 for domestic delays of at least three hours and up to $775 for delays of six hours or longer. The rule never made it into law. As of November 7, 2025, the official guidance on what counts as a significant change or delay remains the current reference point for U.S. airlines.

Gobble's Take: A rule that never became law is now officially off the table — worth knowing what delay thresholds still apply.
