The way I read the new policy is that you can bring liquids through the KCM entrance out of uniform. If you are selected for additional screening at the KCM site (at the physical location where the KCM is located), then liquids are still permissible. If you get referred over to normal TSA lines and have to be processed with normal passengers out of uniform, then your liquids cannot be carried through. Hopefully their "randomized searches" have not increased as a result of this new policy!

Jump seat question. I was trying to get home and noticed that somebody had reserved a "to work" JS before I could try listing mine. I thought it was odd that somebody would live in NYC and commute to ATL so I tried to look them up. When I did, I got an invalid employee number. I searched by name and he wasn't there either. Any ideas what's going on? Perhaps a space filler for the FAA or a company executive?

In honor of all the "Back-door Warriors" I am posting a link to Deep Purple - "Knocking at your back Door." Not only a solid song, but hugely appropriate for this time of month

I don't know where you got that information. A memo I printed out from the company yesterday says "Non-uniformed crew who are selected for random screening at the KCM point willl continue to have their exemptions allowed"
The next paragraph states that a non-uniformed crewmember trying to clear screening out of uniform in the normal screening lanes will not have an exemption for the liquids.
So it boils down to if you use the normal lanes or TSA pre check out of uniform they can take your stuff, if you use KCM out of uniform it is good to go. The memo also clarified, at least for me, that KCM can be used at any time by the crewmember. Company business or personal travel.

I've been commuting out of uniform (mostly) for several years using TSA Pre Check and just comply with the liquid ban. It's not real difficult and I don't find it at all inconvenient. I have KCM at my home airport but for some reason it is much more painful to go through KCM than TSA Precheck. For some reason my home airport is an outlier when it comes to the norm of KCM and I can't stand commuting in uniform.

Yeah, sorry. There are several different codes. Look at the bottom of the page. It gives a breakdown of the codes. DLJ=us. DLG=DGS. DLX=dispatcher. DLM=mechanic. DLO=OAL pilot. So it would appear that it should be a Delta pilot.
