A4A calls upon the Administration and Congress to work together to address security concerns on the southern border in a way that will not adversely impact air transportation at a time when the system needs to be operating at peak efficiency.
Taxes already add 20 percent or more to the cost of a flight, but many airports and others are asking Congress to double – or raise even higher – the Passenger Facility Charge (PFC), the airport tax that passengers pay every time they purchase a ticket.
