She needs to contact the NZ consulate not TSA. The only time TSA would get involved if a no-fly person boards a plane internationally and that plane flies over US air space. So your involved in this story how?
It's not a lame story at all. It's outrageous if SQ is using information supplied by a foreign agency, one that has been found to be wrong as often as it's right, to prevent people from boarding an aircraft.
