Passenger Record Info in Wake of JetBlue

Several resources of note for those interested in the government’s collection and use of airline passenger itineraries and associated personal data:

  • The ACLU has posted an online FOIA request for use by passengers seeking to determine whether data collected by JetBlue is now part of the DOD’s TSA database.
  • From The Practical Nomad, a range of web resources on the Passenger Name Record (PNR) databases maintained by airlines, whose content comprises the core of the TSA’s CAPPS II system. This site is frequently updated.
