CASS Airlines
The Cockpit Access Security System (CASS) allows airline gate agents to quickly determine whether an airline pilot from a participating airline is authorized to access an aircraft’s cockpit jumpseat. CASS does not approve anyone to ride in the jumpseat – again, that responsibility lies with the captain . The use of biometrics, security- enabled kiosks, and protected databases provides effective positive identification and background data to allow crewmembers to move safely through the system. As of June 2009, the following airlines participate in the CASS (IATA code in parentheses). Check the ALPA website for future CASS participant updates.
