: The Office of the Secretary and the Bureau of Transportation
Statistics (BTS) are revising the Department's definitions of revenue
passenger and nonrevenue passenger to specify that a passenger
traveling on a ticket or voucher received as compensation for denied
boarding or as settlement of a consumer complaint is considered to be a
revenue passenger. The revised definitions will also be added to other
regulatory provisions. Based on this final rule, the definitions will
be in harmony with the definitions of revenue and nonrevenue passenger
adopted by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO).
Harmonizing DOT's and ICAO's
[[Page 58688]]
definitions will relieve air carriers from being required to keep two
sets of traffic enplanement statistics--one for reporting to ICAO and
one for reporting to DOT. This action is taken at DOT's initiative.
DATES: This rule is effective October 18, 2002.
