I think this is very similar to arguments about gov't regulated minimum speed broadband. Especially considering airports and the like are usually built with massive gov't support. And free market arguments do not really apply here I think.If I need to get from NY to Paris in less than 2 weeks, I have no choice but to get onto a plane. I think standard minimums make absolute sense, because there's not a free market, since people are basically forced to travel by plane (at least for international flights). That or getting rid of reclining seats...
