Agency Information Collection; Activity Under OMB Review; Report of Passengers Denied Confirmed Space, BTS Form 251

Notice.

In compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, Pub. L. 104-13, the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) invites the general public, industry and other Federal Agencies to comment on the continuing need for and usefulness of DOT requiring U.S. and foreign air carriers that operate scheduled passenger service with over 60-seat aircraft to submit reports on their oversales practices. Such carriers must submit the quarterly Form 251 ``Report of Passengers Denied Confirmed Space.'' However, carriers do not report data from inbound U.S. international flights because the protection of Part 250 ``Oversales'' do not apply to these flights. The Department uses Form 251 data to monitor the compliance by U.S and foreign air carriers to the oversales provisions of Part 250.
