Change-of-Gauge Service is scheduled passenger air transportation for which the operating air carrier use one singe flight number even though passengers do not travel in the same aircraft from origin to destination, but must change planes at an intermediate point. In addition, airlines schedule change-in-gauge service that involve aircraft changes between multiple flights on one side of the intermediate change point and one single flight on the other side.

The program reporting requirements have not changed since the previous request for Extension of a Previously Approved Collection was submitted in 2005. However, an adjustment has been made to the Information Collection request: the number of affected tickets remains in the midrange of the 2005 IC request while the estimated number of respondents have decreased. Both changes reflect the changing nature of the passenger airline industry; increased use of Internet booking sites, decreased number of and commissions paid to travel agents, increased numbers of air travel journeys, and the same (or less) change-of-gauge service in the domestic and international markets. Although the total hour burden remains within the range estimated in 2005, we estimate that the average cost per ticket, for both airlines and travel agencies, has decreased from $0.56 to $.038 per ticket. This decrease reflects efficiencies inherent in industry practice changes.
