1. WELCOME TO ARC TRAVEL SERVICES BREAKOUT SESSION JUNE 1, 2009  Secure Flight  GovTrip 2.0  Deobligation Utility  Password Resets  Relocation Update

2. The 9/11 Commission Report recommended that the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) take over Watch List matching from the airlines.  The Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act (IRTPA) of 2004 codified this recommendation and required DHS/TSA to assume from the airlines the function of conducting pre-flight comparisons of airline passenger information to federal government watch lists.  TSA will implement the Secure Flight program to meet this Congressional mandate.  The Secure Flight Final Rule provides the regulatory authority for the implementation of the Secure Flight program and became final December 29, 2008. Secure Flight Background

3.  Secure Flight is a program that will match limited passenger information against government watch lists to identify known and suspected terrorists, prevent known and suspected terrorists from boarding an aircraft, facilitate legitimate passenger air travel, and protect individuals’ privacy.  Secure Flight will add data elements that airlines do not currently collect and the airlines will transmit the data no later than 72 hours prior to flight time.  If a reservation is made within 72 hours of the flight the data will be transferred at the time the reservation is made. Description

4. Under the Secure Flight Final Rule, TSA will require airlines to collect and transmit to TSA the following information:  Passenger full name which matches the form of ID used for the travel (required)  Itinerary (required)  Date of Birth (required)  Gender (required)  Redress Number (optional)  Passport # (if available) Requirements

6.  Federal travelers will need to have an updated travel profile in GovTrip or provide the additional data during the reservation process, or at the airport.
