If so, how does TSA justify this violation, since they do not have the power to detain anyone?
In order to complete the resolution pat down IT HAS TO BE DONE in private. If the passenger declines to move to private screening then the process cannot be completed and the passenger cannot enter the boarding area.
That being said, the APA just recommended that all pilots say they want private screening in all instances involving their people.
