Hi Everyone!!
I was wondering just HOW important it is to have your Secure-Flight information included in your stand-by listing is.
Eff. 01NOV10, apparently all passenger should have their data in the system at least 72 hours prior to departure, so that the TSA/CBS can cross check the No-Fly list.
Well, the problem arises, in as much as some airlines only allow listing via the web using site such as Flyzed.com
All good and well, but you do not have the option of adding personal data such as DOB/Passport Nr/Country of citzenship etc......
Long story, short, I wanted to list myself for a SK flight from CPH--USA. I can do it on the web site, but am not sure that I will be granted transportation (space available) due to the fact that I cannot get a listing with my personal data. I have called the SK telephone hotline and was told that they can in no way list or help in the matter.
Does anyone here have any suggestions or ideas for me???
All kinda stressing, even before the journey begins.

Good question, and I'm surprised you haven't gotten an answer here. I just completed an international trip and had no difficulty--but I'm a US citizen and my data is on file. Also, I returned to the US on my own airline. Wonder if it might have been different on another carrier.
Wonder if the US embassy might be able to help...
I apoligize for the actions of the US Government toward foreign nationals. We have completely lost sight of reality!
You might also try checking with someone else at SK. Someone must know the answer!

I don't know if its the same for non-revs, however I know airlines have established procedures to clear Go-Show passengers at the last minute.
Off course there is no guarantee things will work out, or they will go through the effort for non-revs but there is a method to deal with last minute bookings and passengers showing up at the airport.
