Nighttime Airport Curfews: New Rules for Select Airports

This bill allows specific airports to implement mandatory nighttime curfews to reduce noise. This means residents near these airports may experience less aircraft noise at night, improving their quality of life. Airports must provide advance notice of these changes to passengers and other interested parties.
Key points
Selected airports can implement total or partial flight bans during nighttime hours (starting at 10 p.m. for 9 hours).
This applies to airports that had voluntary noise restrictions before 1990 and are covered by noise mitigation agreements.
Airports must notify about new rules and penalties for violations at least 90 days in advance, for example, on their website.
