According to airline executives, the new rules could add up to more cancellations. Airlines may be forced to cancel flights rather of delaying them.
For the most part, the new rules will be positive for travelers since now they will be able to go back to the terminal sooner, walk around, and have something to eat or drink. However, there may be situations where travelers will get stir when they get their flight cancelled and there are no later on flights available. In those cases, I think there will be more people sleeping at the airport, or staying in a nearby hotel or alternative lodging.

Nowadays, more and more travelers are open to consider renting fully furnished vacation homes, villas, cabins directly from owners or property management companies. If you are looking for standard room accommodations, then reserving a room in a hotel, motel or resort is a safe way to go. Hotels, motels, and resorts are the most popular option among business travelers and people traveling alone or with large groups. However, vacation rentals are appealing to vacationers seeking great value, cost savings and privacy. Bed and breakfasts are also a great choice, specially for couples seeking romantic getaways, honeymoons, anniversary celebrations, or vacationers interested in a unique lodging experience.
