SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

OMB Approval No. 2139-0014

    Title: Passenger Origin-Destination Survey Report.
    Form No.: None.
    Type Of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Respondents: Certificated air carriers that operated scheduled 
passenger service report these data.
    Number of Respondents: 100.
    Total Number of Annual Responses: 1200.
    Estimated Time per Response: 30 hours.
    Total Annual Burden: 36,000 hours.
    Needs and Uses: Survey data are used in monitoring the airline 
industry, negotiating international agreements, reviewing requests for 
the grant of anti-trust immunity for air carrier alliance agreements, 
selecting new international routes, selecting U.S. carriers to operate 
limited entry foreign routes, and modeling the spread of contagious 
diseases. The Passenger Origin-Destination Survey Report is the only 
aviation data collection by DOT where the air carriers report the true 
origins and destinations of passengers' flight itineraries. The 
Department does have

[[Page 51441]]

another aviation data collection (T-100) which (1) gives passenger 
totals for city-pairs served on a nonstop basis and (2) market totals 
for passengers traveling on a single flight number. If the passenger 
travels on multiple flight numbers, a new market is recorded for each 
change in flight number.
    The Confidential Information Protection and Statistical Efficiency 
Act of 2002 (44 U.S.C. 3501 note), requires a statistical agency to 
clearly identify information it collects for non-statistical purposes. 
BTS hereby notifies the respondents and the public that BTS uses the 
information it collects under this OMB approval for non-statistical 
purposes including, but not limited to, publication of both 
Respondent's identity and its data, submission of the information to 
agencies outside BTS for review, analysis and possible use in 
regulatory and other administrative matters.

    Issued in Washington, DC, on November 13, 2025.
Rolf Schmitt,
Acting Director, Office of Airline Information, Bureau of 
Transportation Statistics.
