Lawmakers are trying to pass a bill that will make flying better — but it doesn't address the problems that make skiplagging so appealing

• The House on Thursday passed a bill meant to improve air travel. It now heads to the Senate.
• There are a number of consumer protection measures being proposed.
• But the bill doesn't address the confusing pricing models that lead to skiplagging.
