DOT/OST RIN: 2105-AD96 Publication ID: Spring 2013 
Title: Accessibility of Carrier Websites and Ticket Kiosks  
Abstract: This is the first of two rulemakings to followup 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 rulemaking is RIN 2105-AE12.) This rulemaking action would consider: (1) whether carriers should be required to make websites 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.
