Title: Accessibility of Carrier Websites and Ticket Kiosks  
Abstract: This is the first of two supplemental notices of proposed rulemaking (SNPRM) to follow-up on air travel accessibility issues discussed in the preamble of the 2008 final Air Carrier Access Act (ACAA) rule but deferred for final decision to a later rulemaking. (The second SNPRM is RIN 2105-AE12.) This rulemaking action would consider: (1) whether carriers should be required to make Web sites they operate and on which their agents sell airport transportation on their behalf accessible to people with disabilities; and (2) whether automated kiosks operated by carriers at U.S. airports should be required to be accessible.
