Summary

Authorizes the Administrator to impose a fee of not more than $1.00 per domestic flight segment to carry out such program. Prohibits air carriers providing interstate and intrastate air transportation and domestic air carriers and foreign air carriers providing foreign transportation from serving more than two alcoholic beverages to an individual on a scheduled flight segment. Provides for an alternative alcoholic beverage prohibition if a foreign government objects to the maximum two drink limit.
