US Airways passengers can change flights today without a fee
Skift Take
Waiving fees is a courtesy to flyers and the airline staff that deal with them as thousands of flights continued to be cancelled across the country.
US Airways is waiving the change fee for customers who must alter their flights due to severe Christmas weather.
The airline is canceling the $150 charge for changing flights to and from 25 cities where there are flight delays and cancellations. The offer is available to travelers scheduled to fly Wednesday and Thursday. They must keep the same flight origin and destination.
Their rescheduled flights must be by New Year’s Day.
