New rules from the Department of Transportation give airline passengers more rights. The new rules require that:

• If you’re involuntarily bumped from a flight, you can receive twice as much compensation as before.
• Airlines must refund your baggage fees if they lose your luggage.
• Tarmac delays at small airports must be limited to three hours, and delays of international flights at U.S. airports must be limited to four hours.
• Airlines must post all optional fees, including baggage, meal, and change fees, on their websites.
