This is actually the airport's option. We can request but it is ultimately up to the airport. It may take a while to get the bus even with fair warning of an arriving flight. Once the flight lands the carrier and airport will want these people off the plane thus the escort to the checkpoint.</font>
I'm still finding this more than a little weird. Let's see, a terrorist would have to get something past security, ride an airplane and not use whatever it is, then get on another flight and use it.
And, the technique we use to thwart this is to subject them to screening that they had previously passed.
