BIOMETRICS TAKES OFF—FIGHT BETWEEN PRIVACY AND AVIATION SECURITY WAGES ON ALEXA N. ACQUISTA* ABSTRACT In the last two decades, the Department of Homeland Secur- ity (DHS) has implemented a variety of new screening and iden- tity verification methods in U.S. airports through its various agencies such as the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP). In particular, biometric technology has become a focal point of aviation secur- ity advances. TSA, CBP, and even private companies have started using fingerprint, iris, and facial scans to verify travelers’ identi- ties, not only to enhance security but also to improve the travel experience. This Comment examines how DHS, its agencies, and private companies are using biometric technology for aviation security. It then considers the most common privacy concerns raised by the expanded use of biometric technology: data breaches, func- tion creep, and data sharing.

BOX 1169o HERNDON, VIRGINIA 20170 703-689-4339 FAX 703-484-2103 December 4, 2003 Board of Directors Mesa Air Group 410 North 44th Street Suite 700 Phoenix, AZ 85008 Ladies and Gentlemen: We are the Officers of the Master Executive Council for the pilots of Atlantic Coast Airlines Holdings, Inc. (“ACA”), as represented by the Air Line Pilots Association International. We are writing to you on behalf of the 1,600 pilots at ACA to clearly state our unambiguous opposition to your announced intentions for our company. As we have previously stated via press release and in numerous media interviews, this pilot group and its elected leadership strongly support our current Board’s decision to transform ACA from a regional carrier into a Dulles-based, low-fare airline to be known as Independence Air. Subsequent to your unsolicited “expression of interest” of October 6, 2003, and with full knowledge of your announced intentions, this pilot group overwhelmingly approved an amendment to our collective bargaining agreement to support this transformation through wage reductions and productivity enhancements. With 93% of our eligible pilots participating in the ratification process, and of those, 97% voting in favor of the amended agreement, this ballot clearly demonstrates that ACA’s pilots are absolutely unified in our commitment to working with all ACA employees to ensure the success of Independence Air. We take exception with the uninformed and simplistic view that the ACA pilots support Independence Air only because it will provide an opportunity to operate larger aircraft.

Under the leadership of a new and invigorated management team, and thanks to the diligence, sacrifice and ingenuity of Delta people and commitments from our stakeholders and partners, our airline proudly proved its mettle by undertaking an unprecedented transformation that gave us an opportunity to avoid the court-supervised restructuring path some other carriers could not. There is no question that the aviation marketplace, in the last and more work still ahead, Delta by the end of 2004 had made throes of deregulation, has changed permanently and funda- real progress pursuing the “Delta Solution”: mentally – and will continue to change.
