The FAA is considering allowing the airlines to add names to a DO NOT FLY LIST.
Really bad idea! As airport agents, we do have the authority to disallow passengers
to fly. The Airline company can stop an individual from using our services if they
have demonstrated abuse of some kind. That should allowed under conditions
of carriage for individual airlines.
Giving that authority to the government would be catastrophic. As Americans, we do
not want the powers that be deciding who can or cannot fly. Allowing our
government authorities to have that power over our civil liberties is not good.
Think about this!
Enjoy the journey!
