FILE - This Feb. 11, 2014 file photo shows an airline passenger waiting for his rescheduled flight to Orlando under the departure board showing hundreds of cancellations at Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport in Atlanta. Airlines should be required to disclose fees for basic services like checked bags, an assigned seat and a carry-on bag wherever tickets are sold so that passengers know the true cost of airfares, the government said Wednesday. Under new regulations proposed by the Department of Transportation, information on fees must be provided wherever passengers can purchase an airfare, including on a website, by telephone, or in-person.
