What it does

The Airline Travelers Right to Know Act would require air carriers to disclose potential toxic fume exposures to passengers and crew, including details on health risks and safety measures, and mandate immediate notification of toxic fume events aboard aircraft. It would also require passengers to acknowledge understanding of such risks during ticket purchase, install toxic fume sensors on aircraft, and provide crewmembers with access to mobile oxygen masks and the right to decline assignments on aircraft with unresolved fume issues without penalty. Violations would result in civil penalties enforced by the Federal Aviation Administration.
