Airline Reacts to Passenger Boycott of Trump Airport [View all]
The airline has an update for flyers who’d rather steer clear of President Donald J. Trump International Airport.United Airlines is reportedly preparing to allow passengers free flight changes if they’d rather not pass through President Donald J. Trump International Airport.
The airport formerly known as Palm Beach International was officially renamed in honor of the 80-year-old president last week, the latest in a string of landmarks to bear Trump’s name since his return to the White House for a second term in January 2025.
For travelers who’d prefer to steer clear of the newly rebranded airport, United plans to offer complimentary flight changes to nearby Fort Lauderdale or Miami, according to an internal memo obtained by Live And Let’s Fly.
The airline would allow eligible passengers to switch airports without paying typical change fees, giving anti-Trump flyers an easy off-ramp.
