The FAA is expected to issue "experimental permits regulations" in the next few weeks. The permits are designed to allow private space companies to test their rockets in anticipation of providing tourists services to the general public in the next few years.
The regulations are not expected to be very strict, allowing the infant industry to test and experiment as much as they need to. However, tourists will not be allowed on the test flights.
