What are the odds ALPA will convince airlines to pay a cost that you have already agreed to pay? Really, what are the odds?

Once you pay for it, you will ALWAYS pay for it. You will also pay all the increases that will inevitably come down the line, as TSA "reanalyzes" all the costs that they can apportion to CREWPASS.

Think of it as that teaser rate that gets you to sign up for cable....sounds like a great value at first until the promo rate ends, and then the price goes up, up, up, and away!

This is a cost that should be borne by the TSA. The TSA stands to benefit from it just like we do. It's that simple.

Are there really pilots willing to pay a penny to the TSA to secure aircraft FROM THEMSELVES! Good grief.
