As this is not a legal forum, I understand the poster to mean "prohibited", not subject to criminal penalty under federal law. So it could be a violation of the contract or carriage, or airline policy.
Finally, since you appear to be looking for an argument, there are nonfrivolous arguments that it constitutes an intentional interference with contractual rights, and/or trespass to chattel.

1. RE the
bolded language, doesn't the 9th Amendment guarantee us to rights not specified unless prohibited?
2. RE the
blue language, does varying from airline policy make something "completely illegal"?
2. Is this your way of saying that it's not "completely illegal"? Doesn't "completely" make it unequivocally illegal? Thus, certain rare predecents would be rendered irrelevant given that qualifier?
