Just received the following. Now the first class cabin is a terrorist threat!!!
*** TSA Pulling the Curtain
Time -- That annoying curtain separating
first class from coach on most airplane
flights may be facing its own final
curtain. The Transportation Security
Administration (TSA), which oversees
viation security, has told the airlines
that it wants the barrier removed
permanently, to allow cabin crews and
federal air marshals (FAMs) to see the
entire cabin. Some airlines are not
thrilled with the move, which could
happen by the end of the month. Much
of their profit comes from passengers
paying high first-class fares, and the
companies are afraid of doing anything
to alienate those premium flyers.
