The Bureau of Transportation Statistics is relieving air carriers of the burden of submitting the Traffic and Capacity Statistics portion of Schedule T-8 – Line 7 through Line 13. The carriers will continue to submit the Operating Revenues and Expenses portion of the Schedule T-8 – Line 1 through Line 6.
Carriers currently submit detailed monthly T-100 traffic reports. From these detailed reports BTS or any data user can construct the data that are on the Traffic and Capacity Statistics portion of Schedule T-8 because the monthly T-100 traffic reports are reported by service class and aircraft configuration which allows data users to identify all-cargo flights. The T-100 data are available on the BTS web site at: http://www.transtats.bts.gov/databases.asp?Mode_ID=1&Mode_Desc=Aviation&Subject_ID2=0
If you have any questions, please e-mail them to OAI.eSubmit.support@dot.gov.This action was taken under authority delegated by 14 CFR Section 385.19(b).
