What it does
The Time is Money Act would direct the Secretary of Transportation to issue regulations reducing the threshold for what constitutes a significantly delayed or changed flight under federal aviation rules. Specifically, it would lower the threshold from 3 hours to 2 hours for domestic flights and from 6 hours to 5 hours for international flights within 180 days of enactment. This change would affect airlines and passengers by potentially triggering passenger rights protections—such as refunds or rebooking—more frequently when flights are delayed or altered. The bill aims to strengthen consumer protections in air travel by defining significant delays more stringently.
