Google's proposed search result changes get thumbs up from EU airlines

Google's proposed changes to its search results to meet EU tech legislation have gained support from Airlines for Europe, a lobbying group representing major airlines. Google has been making adjustments to its search result formats in response to demands from various stakeholders, including price-comparison sites and airlines. The company aims to comply with the Digital Markets Act (DMA) by avoiding favoritism towards its own products and services. Airlines for Europe has expressed approval for certain changes, such as the horizontal layout and the use of blue to distinguish airlines and comparison sites. However, the group has raised concerns about the display of prices and the use of vague dates in search results. Failure to reach a consensus may prompt Google to return to its previous format of 10 blue links in search results.
