The U.S. Congress has reached an agreement to temporarily extend full funding for
the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) through September 16 and as a result,
the FAA authority to collect federal aviation taxes will be reinstated.
For tickets booked beginning 12:01am on Monday August 8 the following taxes will
apply:
The 7.5% tax generally applicable to domestic transportation (as well the 7.5% tax
on amounts received from the sale of "frequent flyer miles".)
The $3.70 domestic segment tax.
The $16.30 international arrival/departure tax.
The $8.20 departure tax for flights between Alaska/Hawaii and the mainland US.
Please refer to the U.S. Internal Revenue Service website for further information regarding the treatment of taxes for tickets previously issued.
