Gulf Airline Recovery Stays Too Uneven for Connections Gulf airline recovery remains uneven on March 23, 2026, leaving Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Doha flights bookable but less resilient.

Gulf airline recovery looks better on paper than it does in real trips. Dubai is recovering faster, but Doha remains thin, with fewer good backup options when flights slip. #FlightDisruptions

US drops Biden plan to require airlines to pay compensation for disrupted flights By David Shepardson WASHINGTON (Reuters) -President Donald Trump’s administration said on Thursday it will drop a plan by his predecessor to require airlines to pay passengers cash compensation when U.S. flight disruptions are caused by carriers. In December, the U.S. Transportation Department under then President Joe Biden sought public comment on the rulemaking process about whether airlines should be required to pay $200-$300 for domestic delays of at least three hours and up to $775 for longer delays. U.S. airlines sharply criticized the proposal. The White House said in a document posted on Thursday that USDOT plans to withdraw the notice "consistent with department and administration priorities." In May 2023, Biden said his administration would write rules requiring airlines to compensate passengers for disrupted flights. Airlines for America, a trade group representing American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, United Airlines others, did not immediately comment but said last year that Biden’s plan would raise ticket prices. Airlines in the U.S. must refund passengers for canceled flights, but are not required to compensate customers for delays. Major carriers in 2022 committed to paying for meals, hotel stays and other expenses when they cause significant flight disruptions. Canada, Brazil, the European Union and the United Kingdom all have airline delay compensation rules. In December, USDOT said it was considering if airlines must cover meals, hotel stays and other costs after carrier disruptions and whether to require airlines to rebook passengers on their next available flights, or if flights are unavailable for 24 hours, potentially requiring them to use competitors. 3rd party Ad. Not an offer or recommendation by Investing.com. See disclosure here or remove ads. In May, the Justice Department dropped a lawsuit against Southwest Airlines filed by the Biden administration in its final days that accused the carrier of illegally operating chronically delayed flights.

Alaska Airlines warns of more flight disruptions after IT outage By Rajesh Kumar Singh and David Shepardson CHICAGO (Reuters) -Alaska Airlines warned of more flight disruptions on Monday after an unexpected failure of a critical piece of hardware at its data centers late Sunday forced it to halt all flights for about three hours. The Seattle-based airline had canceled 66 or 7% of its scheduled flights on Monday, while 110, or 12%, of its scheduled flights were delayed as of 10:45 a.m. ET, according to data from FlightAware. Its subsidiary Horizon Air was also dealing with flight disruptions. Since Sunday evening, the airline has had more than 150 flight cancellations as the outage prompted it to request a system-wide ground stop for Alaska and Horizon Air flights at around 8 p.m. PT on Sunday. Its operations resumed around 11 p.m. PT. "Additional flight disruptions are likely as we reposition aircraft and crews throughout our network," Alaska said in a statement. "The IT outage is not related to any other current events, and it’s not a cybersecurity event." The company said a critical piece of hardware at its data centers, manufactured by a third-party, experienced an unexpected failure. It impacted several of its key systems, necessitating a ground stop to keep aircraft in position, Alaska added. "We are currently working with our vendor to replace the hardware equipment at the data center," it said, without specifying the location. Don't miss out on the next big opportunity!
