WASHINGTON, July 19, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- FlyersRights.org submitted its Petition for Reconsideration to the FAA, requesting the FAA reconsider its April denial of FlyersRights.org's October 2022 minimum seat size rulemaking petition.

WASHINGTON, July 19, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- FlyersRights.org submitted its Petition for Reconsideration to the FAA, requesting the FAA reconsider its April denial of FlyersRights.org's October 2022 minimum seat size rulemaking petition.
In April 2023, the FAA denied the petition, claiming that minimum seat standards are not presently necessary for safety.
Paul Hudson, President of FlyersRights.org and member of the FAA's aforementioned Emergency Evacuation Standards ARC explained, "The FAA again refuses to follow Congress' clear command to establish minimum seat size standards.
By relying on a generalized statement from the Emergency Evacuation Standards ARC, which was prohibited from even considering seat size, the FAA justifies its continued refusal to act on the seat size issue to protect passenger safety and health."
