I know most of you are frequent flyers and may have some information/help for me.

Found out this morning that my ex is on the TSA watch list. He makes frequent one day trips to CA to check on the progress of a pilot project. Everytime he picks up his ticket at the airline counter, it takes forever and they are on the phone checking on him. He asked and they confirmed he is on a watch list. So far, he has not been denied boarding. The irony of this is that he (and I) both work at a major airport and he has a complete security clearance badge. You have to have passed a FBI fingerprint and background check to obtain his level of access.

So my question: Does anyone know how one can find out from the TSA if in fact they are on a watch list and the reason?

Thanks

So sorry for all this Vickie! This sounds like a good question for Peter, Marc, or Lawrence! Hopefully someone can answer!

Good Luck!

Maybe he's on the list because he has that security clearance. I mean, maybe they have to REALLY make sure he is himself since he has such a security clearance.

Just a guess.

Clay buys a lot of tickets at the last minute and I think this can get you flagged. He is always pulled out of line when he does a last minute trip.

I spoke with someone (a woman) not too long ago who had that type of clearance...she was FBI I think....andyway, she also was complaining about that. She said she was also on this watch list and that it took her forever to get through security! I am not sure about finding out who is on that list though.
