The USA wants access to databases that collect passenger information during the process of ordering plane tickets, newspaper Dagbladet reports.
This would include the person who ordered the ticket, who paid, who else is in the travel group, ordering of rental car and hotel, meal requests, telephone numbers and e-mail addresses, and previous journeys.
An EU tribunal rejected a May agreement between the USA and the EU from 2004 on the grounds that it lacked a legal foundation. That agreement involved European airlines transferring 34 different types of information about each passenger traveling to the USA, prior to departure.
The tribunal has now given the EU Commission a deadline of the end of September to reach a new agreement with the USA.
