This bill closes a gap in aviation security by making certain scheduled passenger flights follow the same TSA screening program as large airlines. It targets operators that sell seats publicly and fly planes with more than nine seats but currently bypass TSA checkpoints.

Safer Skies Act of 2025 is a House bill in committee. The latest recorded action: Referred to the Subcommittee on Transportation and Maritime Security.
Latest action on H.R. 2353: Referred to the Subcommittee on Transportation and Maritime Security.
Who this affects: This bill primarily affects smaller and charter-style airlines that sell seats on scheduled flights but currently operate outside the TSA checkpoint system. It also affects passengers who use these services, as they would face the same screening process used at major airports. TSA itself would need to update its rules and possibly expand oversight.
Why this matters: Some passenger flights that look and feel like regular airline service currently operate without the same TSA security screening. Passengers on these flights may face lighter or different screening than those on major airlines, creating a potential gap in aviation security. This bill aims to close that gap by applying one consistent security standard.
