Abstract: The FAA Modernization and Reform Act required US carriers that operate scheduled passenger service or public charter service using any aircraft with a design capacity of 30 or more seats, and operators of large hub, medium hub, small hub, or non-hub US airports, to submit contingency plans for lengthy tarmac delays to the Secretary of Transportation for review and approval no later than May 14, 2012. The Act also requires each covered carrier and airport to ensure public access to its plan after DOT approval by posting the plan on its website. The Act requires U.S. air carriers to submit an updated plan every 3 years and airport operators to submit an updated plan every 5 years. The Department is seeking OMB approval for the submission and posting of these plans under the PRA clearance process.
