Title: Amendment to Definitions of Revenue and Nonrevenue Passengers 
Abstract: This action revises the definitions of revenue passenger and nonrevenue passenger. It specifies that a passenger traveling on a ticket or voucher received as compensation for denied boarding or as settlement of a consumer complaint is considered a revenue passenger. The revised definitions harmonize Departmental regulations with those adopted by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). This change prevents air carriers from being required to keep two sets of traffic enplanement statistics.
