Biden’s Department of Transportation has gone after ‘junk fees’ and aimed to make refunds for flight cancellations easier. Airlines may now be expecting a reversal. It’s not just Silicon Valley billionaires who are eager to usher in a second Trump administration.

The chief executive of Delta Air Lines says the incoming Trump administration will be a “breath of fresh air” for airlines after what he called government “overreach” under President Joe Biden.

Delta CEO Ed Bastian said the last four years were marked by governmental "overreach." The Buttigieg-led DOT has added new rules aimed at protecting consumers, and Delta is under investigation for its handling of the CrowdStrike outage this summer that stranded thousands of customers.

The Biden administration is on its way out of power, but that's not ending the arguments between the administration and airlines that think they are being over-regulated.

CEO Ed Bastian is cautiously optimistic about President-elect Donald Trump’s incoming administration, after what he called a “level of overreach” over the past four years of the Biden administration.

Delta Air Lines CEO Ed Bastian doesn’t really like to talk politics, but welcomes a Trump administration that he perceives will have less ‘overreach’ of the aviation industry. That doesn’t necessarily mean less oversight or less scrutiny, mind you. It just means less intervention in some matters.

Delta and other airline carriers are suing Biden's Transportation Department to kill a rule requiring greater transparency over fees that the carriers charge their passengers.
