Upcoming Changes to Known Crewmember for Personal International Travel – LAA/LUS
The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) will soon implement new changes to the Known Crewmember (KCM) program for crewmembers traveling to international destination on personal travel.
In the upcoming weeks, crewmembers traveling as a passenger for personal travel from a U.S. location to an international location, must be screened as a passenger through the passenger screening checkpoint prior to entering into the airport sterile area. Crewmembers will no longer be allowed to use the KCM access point for personal travel from the U.S. to an international location.
All other provisions of the KCM program remain in effect.
Please Note: Crewmembers traveling from the U.S. to international locations on Company business may continue to use the KCM access points.
Company business includes; but is not limited to, the following:
- Flight Operations
- Training
- Crew Positioning
- Deadheading
- Other Company Business
