DOT ANNUAL REPORT OF DISABILITY-RELATED COMPLAINTS RECEIVED IN 2022 DUE BY JANUARY 30, 2023
January 3, 2023
Each January carriers are required to submit an annual report to the U.S. Department of Transportation (“DOT” or the “Department”) which includes a categorized summary of all disability-related complaints received by the airline during the prior calendar year. The summary is to be submitted to the Department’s Aviation Consumer Protection Division (“DOT ACPD”) on or before the last Monday in January. This year’s report, covering calendar year 2022, is due no later than January 30, 2023. Carriers that did not receive any written disability-related complaints in calendar year 2022 are still required to file a zero-report indicating that no complaints were received.
Failure to comply with the reporting requirements can result in DOT taking enforcement action, and DOT has historically penalized numerous carriers for failing to comply with this important reporting mandate.
Please contact us if you have any questions on the submission process or require assistance in making your annual report.
