Sorry Spiff, but the airlines issue the bag tags, and the bag tags inform us of the selectee status. Whatever is in place, was in place before we arrived. I'm thinking FAA.

Please read again -- the point is that the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT is doing this, NOT the airlines. The airlines (except DL ) are complicitous only to the extent that they are required to be.
