Abstract: Public Law 101-604(entitled the Aviation Security Improvement Act of 1990, or "Asia 90", and later codified as 49 U.S.C. 44909) requires that certificated air carriers and large foreign air carriers collect the full name of each U.S. citizen traveling on flight segments to or from the United States and solicit a contact name and telephone number. In the event of an aviation disaster, airlines would be required to provide the information to the Department of State and, in certain circumstances, to the National Transportation Safety Board.

Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: Yes

Burden Reduction Due to: Using Information Technology

Short Statement: The program reporting requirements have not changed since the previous request for Extension of a Previously Approved Collection submitted in 2005. Although an adjustment has been made to the Information Collection Request, while the number of affected tickets has increased, the estimated number of respondents has decreased. Both changes reflect the changing nature of the passenger airline industry; increased use of Internet booking sites, decreased numbers of and commissions paid to travel agents, and increased numbers of air travel journeys. As such, the estimated total hour burden has decreased and this decrease reflects efficiencies inherent in industry practice changes.
