It is now time for the foreign airlines to "step up to the plate" and provide adequate security. Air marshals are a good first step, but obviously it would be better if the terrorist type people were stopped before boarding the plane. I can't believe there is such a protest by BALPA and others, when British Airways planes have been the ones that have mostly been cancelled. Can they not see that someone may want to use their planes because they know that their position is weak? Take a look at your passengers closely and provide some armed protection onboard if you want to fly to the States and make some big COIN.
