  1. And for domestic as well as international flights, the airline would have that information.


  2. Yes. International airlines flying in an out of the US have to submit Passenger lists to the the US govt several hours prior to a flight. The probably don't know your seat assignment but they know you were on the flight.

  3. The airline keeps a record of your name, what seat you were in, and other specifics at the airport for 90 days. After that, the records are destroyed but kept available in the airline's databases for however long the airline chooses to keep it (years). Those records are only accessible to a select few and are kept in case of incident.

    If you are flying internationally, the airline keeps a record of your citizenship, nationality, and DOB (from your passport) for 90 days.
