CrewPASS!

[sweptback]

I overnight in CAE a lot. Our FA’s usually beat us through even if we are first. Of course there are rarely more than 5 or so passengers in line there in CAE. I usually use the regular line unless there is more than five in it because it is faster than crew pass.

I would much rather go through the CrewPass line because I don't have to take my laptop out or separate all my stuff.

Usually I have to wait for a TSA agent to come over to the where the laptop is... no big deal really.

I asked them in CAE once about this. I was told that the laptop they use for Crewpass ran through the airports' free wireless, and that system goes down on a regular basis. Apparently the airport wasn't interested in setting up a hardline for this.

Peace.

Do you have to be in uniform to use it?

I read that the uniform was required for the trial period. I haven't seen anything, yes or no about whether wearing a uniform will be required once it gets fully implemented.

TSA's standards require CrewPASS service providers to, among other things, include a biometric component in crewmember credentials before requesting approval to expand the system to additional U.S. airports.


This little gem right here, may just delay this a few years....don't get too happy there. What biometric component must be in our Id's now, and how much is that going to cost to get implemented???

I believe that the TSA goon comparing the photo in CASS and your passport qualifies as the "biometric component".

What about jizz stains, most regional pilots are encrusted due to the constant jacking off.
HAAAAHAAAA

Great News!!! How many more years until this is up and running?

Since ALPA and TSA are involved.....never.
They're both equally worthless.

There still is a lack of information from the original post. I will probably retire before this goes nation wide, and thats still a few years away!
