Abstract: The DOT is obligated by statue to collect and disseminate the data collected in the Origin and Destination data collection. The collection is mandatory and is required to obtain benefit of the data. All US certificated air carriers that sell airline passenger tickets are required to report. The data collection being collected is considered reporting. The collection frequency is monthly. The data collected are itineraries of passenger’s air travel. Data reported includes passenger’s origin, destination, year and month traveled, fare paid, total taxes paid, via points, dwell time, air carrier that sold the ticket to the passenger, and air carrier that is scheduled to transport the passenger. The users of the data are, including, but not limited to, the DOT, Federal Aviation Administration, Government Accountability Office, Department of Commerce, Bureau of Labor Statistics, Airport Commissions, Aircraft Manufacturers, Air Carriers, and Educational Institutions. The DOT is obligated by statute to collect and disseminate this information. There are many private and public stakeholders that depend on these data to make decisions on aviation business and policy. For example, these data are used by the aviation industry to plan air services, develop commercial aviation infrastructure, measure the economic impact of passenger flows, and create business plans for start-up airlines. The Origin and Destination data are also a primary source of information used to quantify and evaluate the effectiveness of Federal Aviation policy and programs as well as develop and implement new policies and infrastructure initiatives. Data from the O&D data set are used by the Department to fulfill its aviation mission as described in Part A of the Justification. This is not a revision.
