(1) a reporting carrier (including its contractors), during the course of a reservation or ticketing discussion or other inquiry, discloses to a consumer upon reasonable request the projected period between the actual wheels-off and wheels-on times for a reportable flight; and

(2) a reporting carrier displays, on the public internet website of the carrier, information on the actual wheels-off and wheels-on times during the most recent calendar month for a reportable flight.

(b) Definitions.—In this section, the terms “reporting carrier” and “reportable flight” have the meanings given those terms in section 234.2 of title 49, Code of Federal Regulations (as in effect on the date of enactment of this Act).
