The U.S. federal No Fly List is a tool created by the FBI’s Threat Screening Center to bar individuals considered threats to aviation. This private list, part of a broader terrorist watchlist, affects not only foreign nationals but also American citizens, who may find themselves restricted from air travel for reasons that are often undisclosed. Wealthy individuals may evade these restrictions through private jets, as commercial flights are subjected to TSA scrutiny, demonstrating the complex balance between security and personal rights in air travel.
The right to fly is not guaranteed, and the No Fly List serves as a reminder of the consequences individuals can face for perceived threats to aviation.
The No Fly List is maintained by the FBI's Threat Screening Center, affecting even U.S. citizens, with many unaware of the criteria used for inclusion.
