S. airports.  \n● Air carriers collect the fee from passengers at the time air transportation is purchased, then remit the fees to TSA.  \n~~ ~~ FEE DIVERSION FOR NON-SECURITY PURPOSES   \n● In 2014, Congress amended ATSA with the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013.  \n● The legislation increased the Aviation Passenger Security Fee to $5.60 per enplanement ($11 .20 per roundtrip) .  \n● The funds generated through the 2014 fee increase, however, are diverted to deficit reduction. The fee diversion is in effect until 2025 at a cost of roughly $15 billion over the ten-year span.  \n● In 2018, Congress passed the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018 with another $3.3 billion in aviation security fees being diverted for deficit reduction. This brings the total of fees being diverted to over $18 billion.  \nWHAT FEES FOR SERVICES IS SUPPOSED TO FUND   \n● The airline passenger security fee was established as a fee for security services and operations.  \n● The fee is instrumental in funding all aspects of aviation passenger security, from background investigations, training, salaries, and benefits for the federal security screeners and law enforcement personnel, to TSA PreCheck and Known Crewmember programs to the Federal Air Marshals Service, to security-related capital improvements at airports, as well as the costs of security training for pilots and flight attendants and federal flight deck officers.  \n● Not only has this fee been instrumental in TSA’s implementation of programs to facilitate the secure travel of air passengers, it has also helped to advance the core national security mission of the agency.  \nPASSENGER FEE  \nFiscal year 2002  \n2003  \n2004  \n2005  \n2006  \n2007  \n2008  \n2009  \n2010  \n2011  \n2012  \n2013  \n2014  \n2015  \n2016  \nTotal Collection  \n$995,400,000  \n$1,199,700,000  \n$1,600,200,000  \n$1,866,300,000  \n$1,855,800,000  \n$1,959,800,000  \n$1,920,100,000  \n$1,756,000,000  \n$1,808,000,000  \n$1,847,500,000  \n$1,877,700,000  \n$1,878,900,000  \n$2,087,000,000  \n$3,508,200,000  \n$3,694,217,000  \n2017  \n$3,882,602,000  \n1100 New York Avenue, NW Suite 450 Washington, D.C. 20005 | TEL [202.408.8422 | ustravel.org](202.408.8422 | ustravel.org)  \n1   \nTSA AIRLINE PASSENGER SECURITY FEES INTENDED FOR SECURITY NOT DEFICIT REDUCTION (CONT. )  \nFEE INCREASE IN PRESIDENT TRUMP’S 2019 BUDGET  \n● At the same time as fees are being diverted, President Trump’s 2019 budget proposes to increase the security fee by another $1.00 in 2019 and an additional $1.65 starting in 2020.  \nFACT SHEET  \nCONGRESS SHOULD STOP DIVERTING REVENUE FROM THE AIRLINE PASSENGER SECURITY FEE AND ALLOW THE MONIES COLLECTED TO BE USED FOR CIVIL AVIATION SECURITY SERVICES.  \n1100 New York Avenue, NW Suite 450 Washington, D.C. 20005 | TEL [202.408.8422 | ustravel.org](202.408.8422 | ustravel.org)  \n2","cbCaivJjAtEwo6TW","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaivJjAtEwo6TW","pdf",211864,"English","# Airline passenger security fee overview\n## Legislative basis and fee collection\n## Fee diversion for non-security purposes\n## Intended security services funded by the fee\n## Passenger fee totals and fiscal years\n## Proposed fee increases in President Trump’s budget\n## Call to stop diverting fee revenue","[{\"question\":\"How are airline passenger security fees collected and remitted to TSA?\",\"answer\":\"Air carriers collect the fee from passengers when air transportation is purchased, then remit the fees to TSA.\"},{\"question\":\"What was the original passenger fee amount and how did it change after 2014?\",\"answer\":\"Congress authorized a $2.50 passenger fee per enplanement (about $5 roundtrip).
