2003 GAO Report: Airport and Airway Trust Fund
Financial Outlook Is Positive, but the Trust Fund's Balance Would Be Affected if Taxes Were Suspended
The multibillion dollar Airport and Airway Trust Fund (Trust Fund) provides most of the funding for the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). The Trust Fund relies on revenue from 10 taxes, including passenger ticket, fuel, and cargo taxes. Concerns about the financial outlook of the Trust Fund have emerged recently given the downturn in passenger air travel, requests from the airlines to suspend some of the Trust Fund taxes, and the need to reauthorize FAA's major programs in 2003.
Over the next three years, with no change in tax rates and assuming that FAA's passenger traffic and airfare projections are valid, the Trust Fund is expected to continue to have sufficient revenue to cover authorized spending and end each year with a surplus, or an "uncommitted balance" as it is usually called, under each of the three expenditure scenarios we analyzed. For fiscal years 2004 through 2006, the potential uncommitted balances would range from over $4.4 billion (if Congress adopted either the House or the Senate proposal) to $1 billion, if the President's proposal were adopted.
