What the chartered passenger air–Tennessee join is

NAICS 481211 and place-of-performance state TN meet on this tie. $172,269,161 is the obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not the nationwide total for chartered passenger air, not Tennessee’s entire federal inflow, and not cash already paid. 481211 is nonscheduled chartered passenger air transportation, not chartered freight (481212) and not scheduled passenger air (481111).

500 is an award-action count. Modifications, delivery orders, and repeat vehicles add rows. Unique vendors are not published in this packet. Dividing $172,269,161 by 500 yields about $344,538 per award on average. The join does not rank Tennessee against other states and does not assign a fiscal year; none is in the facts.

NAICS 481211 as the industry side

USAspending labels NAICS 481211 as Nonscheduled Chartered Passenger Air Transportation. Nonscheduled chartered passenger air means passenger flights that are not on a published schedule as the NAICS is defined. The extract does not name carriers, routes, or aircraft types. Freight charters are 481212. Tennessee also has a 562910 remediation join on this slice; those dollars are not here. The industry hub for NAICS 481211 does not require Tennessee geography; only this overlay applies both filters.

A second chartered passenger air join in another state uses the same NAICS and a different dollar total. Do not treat Tennessee’s 481211 figure as a synonym for every chartered passenger air award in the catalog. 481211 is nonscheduled chartered passenger air transportation, not chartered freight (481212) and not scheduled passenger air (481111). Award titles on the NAICS 481211 page are the place to see what a given line bought.

Place of performance in Tennessee

Tennessee on this join is a USAspending geography field, not a claim that every dollar was disbursed to Tennessee residents. Tennessee POP can reflect origin, destination, or contractor location as USAspending stored it; this packet does not say which. Statewide TN is not a Nashville-only or Memphis overlay. Do not add Tennessee passenger charter to Michigan freight charter. Awards can list TN while later performance occurs elsewhere.

The state hub for Tennessee shows how NAICS 481211 sits beside other industries in the same geography. This packet does not split metros, counties, or congressional districts.

Award count, mean, and obligations

500 awards is a mid-volume transportation file. Charter task orders can repeat. The mean is not a typical seat price and not a cost per hour. Award count 500 is a record count, not a payment count and not a unique-contractor census. Readers who need transaction-level detail should use the Tennessee industries list and the NAICS 481211 hub.

An obligation is a legal commitment. $172,269,161 is that kind of sum. Outlays can lag. This packet has no outlay total and no fiscal-year split. Citing $172,269,161 as cash already spent in Tennessee over-reads the field.

What this pair does not prove

Passenger-charter obligations are not a judgment about airport congestion or safety. They are commitments on one NAICS in one state. Outlays and flight hours are not in this packet. Keep $172,269,161 labeled as NAICS 481211 obligations with Tennessee place of performance. Campaign contributions and USAspending awards are different datasets; this page does not claim donations fund these obligations.
