Title: Carrier-Supplied Medical Oxygen, Service Animals, and Accessibility of Carrier Websites, Kiosks, and In-Flight Entertainment Systems  
Abstract: This rulemaking would fulfill a commitment made in the final rule amending the Air Carrier Access Act rules to develop an SNPRM seeking information from the public on: (1) the cost and technical issues involved in requiring carrier website accessibility; (2) whether automated kiosks operated by carriers in airports and elsewhere should be required to be accessible; (3) whether there are safety-related reasons for excluding service animals other than dogs that may be specific to foreign carriers; (4) whether the cost of requiring carriers to supply free in-flight medical oxygen would create an undue burden; and (5) whether providing high-contrast captioning on in-flight entertainment displays is technically and economically feasible.
