Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Adrian Sanders (Liberal Democrat), on Monday, 24 June 2013, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 15 members in total.


BOARDING PRACTICES OF AIRLINES

That this House believes that the refusal by certain airlines to allow passengers to carry on board airport shopping, in addition to a prescribed cabin baggage allowance, departs from the accepted norm, and is both confusing for consumers and anti-competitive, taking away income from airport retailers; is concerned about how this practice negatively impacts consumer choice, restricts growth at regional airports and impacts on a business model that delivers £2 billion revenue per annum; and calls on the Department for Transport to support any measure that will protect consumer rights that have been in place for many years.
