Plain-language overview
What this bill does
Pacific Island Flight Alternatives Act of 2025 or PIFAA
This bill allows authorized foreign aircraft to pick up and drop off passengers and cargo in Guam or the Northern Mariana Islands on international flights to or from other places in the United States. Authorized aircraft are those registered to a foreign air carrier from Japan, the Philippines, or South Korea.
Current law prohibits foreign air carriers from transporting passengers or cargo between places in the United States, with exceptions.
The bill deems that passengers or cargo that are added to or removed from authorized foreign aircraft in Guam or the Northern Mariana Islands on a flight that is traveling between another place in the United States and an international location have not broken the international journey, thus allowing authorized foreign aircraft to transport passengers and cargo between Guam or the Northern Mariana Islands and other places in the United States on such flights.
