The Passenger Facility Charge (PFC) Program allows the collection of PFC fees for every enplaned customer at commercial airports controlled by public agencies. Airports use these fees to fund FAA-approved projects that enhance safety, security, or capacity; reduce noise; or increase air carrier competition.

This fee is mandated by the FAA and applies to all commercial airlines.

Commercial operators are required to collect a tax on air transportation for each flight that begins and ends in the United States. A segment is a single takeoff and a single landing.

The Federal Security Tax is charged for each one-way flight segment to fund screeners, equipment, and other costs of the Transportation Security Administration.

The U.S. Customs Fee is applied to tickets issued to customers arriving into the U.S. from travel originating in a place other than Canada, Mexico, and the adjacent islands of the United States.

The Immigration Fee applies to travel from any international point into the U.S., Puerto Rico, Guam, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Traveling from U.S. territories and Possessions to the U.S., Puerto Rico, Guam, and the U.S. Virgin Islands is considered travel from an International point; therefore, the Immigration Fee applies.

The Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) Fee applies to tickets for travel from any international point (except Canada) into the U.S. and Puerto Rico.

The Value Added Tax (VAT) is charged on all fares where the point of sale is the foreign location. We also charge the VAT for a fare that is purchased outside the foreign location, but the flight origin is at the foreign location (e.g., a fare between Cancun, Mexico (CUN) and New York JFK Airport that originates in CUN, whether one-way or roundtrip, is subject to VAT). However, the VAT is not charged for a fare purchased outside the foreign location and which originates outside the foreign location (e.g., a JFK-CUN-JFK roundtrip fare or just a one-way JFK-CUN purchased at JFK is not subject to the VAT).
