Air Carrier Access Amendments Act of 2021 This bill expands provisions prohibiting discrimination against disabled individuals by an air carrier. Specifically, it enumerates certain actions that an air carrier must take or may not take with respect to a disabled individual. It also requires the Department of Transportation (DOT) to ensure that disabled individuals traveling in air transportation are able to file complaints with DOT in response to disability-related discrimination and receive assistance from DOT through a hotline or comparable electronic means. The bill authorizes an aggrieved individual and the Department of Justice to bring a civil action for discrimination. The Architectural and Transportation Barriers Compliance Board shall prescribe regulations setting forth minimum standards for aircraft with new or existing type certificates to ensure the accessibility of individuals with disabilities, including those who use wheelchairs. The standards shall address, among other things, boarding and deplaning equipment, seating accommodations, lavatories, visually accessible announcements, and proper stowage of assistive devices in the cargo hold to prevent damage.

2022 · fourth_quarter · Aviation/Airlines/Airports
United Spinal policy staff, along with numerous other disability organizations, participated in a U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) - Disability Advocates Meeting. Policy staff raised concerns about whether DOT had adequate staffing and resources to more effectively and expeditiously respond to passengers with disabilities air travel complaints. Currently, complaints administered by the DOTs Office of Aviation Consumer Protection are averaging a response timeframe of over a year. To ensure safer, more accessible air travel for people with disabilities, United Spinal in response to the Federal Aviation Administrations request for comments on minimum seat dimensions necessary for safety of air passengers, (Emergency Evacuation) submitted comments to Docket No. FAA-2022-1001. United Spinal, as members of the Consortium for Constituents with Disabilities (CCD) Transportation and Emergency Management Task Forces, United Spinal supported comments the Task Force Co-Chairs submitted. United Spinal also supported comments made by Paralyzed Veterans of America on Docket No. FAA-2022-1001. To ensure safer, more accessible air travel for people with disabilities, especially wheelchair users, United Spinal submitted written testimony for the hearing record of the House Committee On Transportation And Infrastructure Subcommittee on Aviation: Accessible air travel: addressing challenges for passengers with disabilities, held on November 17, 2022. United Spinals comments addressed the reauthorization of the Federal Aviation Administration next year and our longstanding priority that the provisions of H.R.1696 - Air Carrier Access Amendments Act of 2021 (ACAAA) be included in the reauthorization. To ensure safer, more accessible air travel by people with disabilities, especially wheelchair users, United Spinal submitted comments in response to a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) on airline ticket refunds and airline consumer protections, DOT-OST-2022-0089. Co-sponsor and pass S. 642/H.R. 1696, the Air Carrier Access Amendments Act (ACAA) of 2021.
