I wrote emails to four of the larger airlines that we normally use. Only Southwest replied and their reply was completely underwhelming (”it’s not our job to do security — that is up to the TSA”).
The carriers have been remarkably silent about this. Personally, I think that they stand to lose a LOT of money over this. I think it’s still a small slice of the population that even knows what is going on. As they come to find out, watch the air travel shrivel.
I would love to see the pilots strike over this issue.
