Exempt???.....You gave up your wings many years ago. Unfortunately, you're NOW out of the loop. Yes, they can ask you to go through the body scanner, they have asked multiple flight attendants. Problem is, SPIFFY, you're required to be on the aircraft at a certain time, so do you forego the body scan or WAIT IN LINE for a touchy feely grope! You pick.
