        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action codifies and augments current disclosure requirements for itineraries with one flight number that involve a change of aircraft. The problem is that passengers may be misled to believe they are receiving nonstop service because there is only one flight number when in fact they have to change planes. The requirements, which would apply to U.S. air carriers, foreign air carriers, and, where appropriate, ticket agents (including travel agents) doing business in the United States are: (1) that transporting carriers include notice of aircraft changes in their written or electronic schedule information provided to the public, in the Official Airline Guide, and in computer reservation systems; (2) that consumers be given reasonable and timely oral notice that a single flight number that they are considering booking entails a change of aircraft en route; and (3) that written notice of the aircraft change be provided along with each ticket. This proposal, in part, responds to the petition of American Airlines in Docket 47546.]]></ABSTRACT>
