A bill for an act modifying the time periods alcoholic beverages may be sold, dispensed, or consumed at commercial service airports.

HF 2281 modifies Iowa's alcohol sales rules at commercial service airports by allowing alcohol to be sold, dispensed, or consumed between 2:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m. during specific flight boarding periods. The bill creates an exception to the current 2 a.m.-6 a.m. ban, permitting alcohol service starting one hour before a scheduled flight through the end of boarding. It applies only to airports meeting federal criteria (at least 2,500 annual passenger boardings with scheduled flights). The change directly affects licensed vendors at qualifying Iowa airports during these flight-related time windows.
