Dear Customer,

For the moment, the IRS is working out the numerous subtleties of processing repayments that at last may amount to $250 million or even more. At last you’ll probably need to supply a copy of your ticket as evidence of travel. We understand the name on the ticket might not always represent the purchaser of the ticket. As a consequence, the refund procedures for company and bulk purchasers could be different to the refund procedures for individual customers. The organisation I belong to, the North American Society of Travel Agents ( ASTA ), is working on our behalf to ensure that your interests are represented as the IRS develops its techniques. We must warn you the IRS has pointed to the fact that the Congress could retroactively impose these taxes on tickets issued after 12:01 am July twenty-three, 2011 when the tax wasn’t in effect. ASTA believes it is doubtful that Congress will attempt to force airlines to turn over the “tax” on tickets bought in the no-tax period. There are serious Constitutional barriers to such action. And the issues of retroactively applying the taxes to tickets individually are enormous.
For the moment, there is little for you to do. If you have tickets that are suitable for money back, you’ll ultimately need a copy of your e-ticket bill. If you happen to have got a copy, that is great. If not, we will help you get a copy of any ticket you bought from us. If you are a big company purchaser, we suggest waiting till the IRS releases its refund procedures, which may vary for bulk consumers, and till the full “exempt period” is understood.
