What this bill would do
This bill, known as the ``Rebuilding America's Airport Infrastructure Act,'' proposes changes to the passenger facility charge program managed by the Federal Aviation Administration. It aims to amend title 49 of the United States Code. The primary focus is modifying the maximum amounts that can be charged to passengers. These changes include a stepped increase in charges starting in 2027. The new maximums would continue to increase through 2030 and eventually be adjusted for inflation.
