"Airline", Newest Reality Show TONIGHT!!!

Yeah I guess that's the first reality show I'm actually interested in
watching. I read that none of it was staged. They just spent six month with
camera crews at LAX and Chicago Midway showing up unannounced at the gates
and filming until something interesting happened. Of course, I'm sure the
editing job might make it cheesy, but I'll at least give it a try. (Assuming
my future father-in-law doesn't delete the episodes off the Tivo... I don't
have cable here at my house, gotta rely on him to record & keep them.)

I find myself liking Southwest just for being willing to do this kind of
thing. None of the other airlines would agree to it.

I am surprised that no one mention it earlier. I was out country until
today.

But from what I understand, now several of the airlines have approached the
show producers about filming at their airlines...

How is it that a camera crew and all the support folks can get out to the gate, but my daughter and wife can not?

Easy! Your wife and daughter do not have prior written permission from the
airport to operate within the sterile areas. In most cases this is arranged
months in advance and an authorized airport official is with them at all
times.
It is nice to have a sterile concourse now, it keeps the local media from
being able to come out to the gates everytime they are a little low on news
for the evening.
That of course does not keep the local media from coming out to the ticket
counters and video taping a cluster of people in one little tiny area and
then reporting on the news that the airport was jam packed.
Oops! I strayed from your answer.

If your daughter and wife would have the power to assist in the spread of
the public paranoia, I am sure they would have been able to work something
out...

As if a woman and her kid would make me nervous. Try terrorist
profiling and you will not worry about women, kids, elderly folks in
wheelchairs or even middle-aged white dudes with clean-cut blonde
hair.

Good police work is nowhere to be seen in the department of homeland security (turns my stomach every time is
see/hear/write "homeland"). Blanket searches are not the solution. Anyone that thinks the so called sterile side is a
better way is sadly mistaken.
