    Hawaiian Airlines bought us tickets on a Northwest flight to Maui when their own aircraft had mechanical problems (it was scheduled to be 6 hours before the delayed Hawaiian flight would take off).

    Quoted: Before the deregulation of the U.S. airline industry in 1978, every U.S. airline had to follow the same set of rules — including those dealing with "irregularities" such as canceled flights. In those days, airline fares and routes were regulated by the Civil Aeronautics Board, the predecessor to today's Federal Aviation Administration.

    FYI - bring a copy of this clause with you next time you fly!

    Quoted: Even if you are flying an airline that adheres to Rule 240, its employees may be reluctant to rewrite your ticket on a competitor because of the financial implications of doing so. So it pays to print out and carry a copy of the contract of carriage and present it to the gate agent if necessary.

      thanks for dotting this! i've ALWAYS had trouble with delays and cancelations, and now instead of yelling w/o evidence, hopefully i can use 240 on certain carriers and hopefully shorten my travels :)
