White House Promises Action on Airline Service Problems
Published September 28th, 2007
President Bush promised on Thursday to take steps to reduce air traffic congestion and long delays that have left travelers grounded. “Endless hours sitting in an airplane on a runway with no communication between a pilot and the airport is just not right,” he said. Bush met in the Oval Office with Transportation Secretary Mary Peters and acting Federal Aviation Administrator Bobby Sturgell. The president urged Congress to look at legislation to modernize the FAA, and instructed Peters to report back to him about ways to ensure that air passengers are treated appropriately.
