The fiscal year 2024 FAA funding package that was signed into law over the weekend is drawing praise for key provisions that NBAA said will boost business aviation. The U.S. Senate approved the package on Friday by a 75-22 vote as part of the multi-agency Consolidation Appropriation Act of 2024. Senate action followed House approval earlier last week.

Also last week, the U.S. Senate approved by unanimous consent the third extension of the FAA’s authorization, this time until May 10. That approval followed House passage a week earlier, and President Biden signed the measure on Friday before the agency’s authorization was set to lapse.
