Airlines sue Transportation Dept over fee disclosure rule
Major U-S airlines are suing the Transportation Department over a new rule about disclosing fees. Airlines including American, Delta, United, JetBlue, Hawaiian, and Alaska, filed suit against the department after being told they must disclose all airline fees upfront.
