Virgin America, Inc. v. Bernstein
Petition for certiorari denied on June 30, 2022
Issue: Whether the Airline Deregulation Act preempts generally applicable state
laws that have a significant impact on airline prices,
routes, and services, as the Supreme Court and four circuits
have held, or whether it preempts such laws only if they
bind an airline to a particular price, route, or service,
as the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit has held. CVSG: 5/24/2022
