Fight passenger right to know flight make, model, age and service history


Fight passenger right to know flight make, model, age and service history
The Issue
Airline passengers deserve transparency and choice. Right now, most travellers aren’t told what aircraft they’ll fly on — and if the plane is swapped last minute, there’s often no warning or refund option.We believe this must change.
We call for the legal right to:
- Know the make, model, and age of the aircraft at the time of booking
- Access the aircraft’s service history, including major incidents or repairs
- Be notified immediately if the scheduled aircraft is changed
- Understand any key differences (layout, safety features, comfort, etc.)
- Cancel or rebook without penalty if the aircraft is swapped last minute without notice
Why it matters:
- Aircraft swaps can affect safety, accessibility, and comfort
- Passengers have the right to make informed decisions
- No one should be locked into flying on an unfamiliar or unwanted aircraft
