AirTran & TSA -- Woman boards flight with someone else's month old boarding pass
(WMC-TV) - After a woman boarded a plane with a boarding pass in a man's name with a date for a flight last month, the Transportation Security Administration is responding. Kathleen Beard's name isn't similar to the one on the boarding pass she handed a TSA officer. The name on the boarding pass was Edward Lawrence Stukenborg, the flight date, March 17. But security waved Beard through. (www.wmctv.com) और अधिक...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
It's not the first time it happened, i have seen it happen a couple times in lax t2.
I agree with Mr. Bryant. Sadly, it takes serious mistakes to initiate logical changes, in all professions.
Every time I've been through, TSA checks my name against my drivers license, checks the date of the ticket, and even the departing city. I've watched them mark every one of those items with a highlighter. This dope needs to get fired immediately. But I also put some blame on the gate agent for AirTran. The woman should never have been allowed on the plane. Those people, Mr. Swiss, DO have barcode readers. It should've set of an alarm as soon as it scanned the boarding pass. I understand they went and got her off the plane, but, IMHO, that's too late.
Security theatre.
get the gubiment out of our lives! obumma!
Would any of us want to sit there and get paid 17k? They need to install bar code readers for tickets which would have solved this problem, and could easily solve name matching for terrorists etc. Japan and to a limited extent Canada does this.
