What is another word for no-fly list?

Pronunciation: [nˈə͡ʊflˈa͡ɪ lˈɪst] (IPA)

No-fly list is a term used to describe a list of individuals who are prohibited from boarding an airplane. However, this term can have negative connotations and can evoke feelings of suspicion or fear. To create a more neutral or descriptive alternative, other synonyms can be used such as "flight restrictions list," "aviation restricted list," or "air travel exclusion list." These alternative terms more accurately describe the purpose of the list without attaching undue weight or creating a negative perception. As with any type of labeling, it is important to use language that is clear, factual, and does not perpetuate stereotypes or discrimination.

Famous quotes with No-fly list

  • We put people of concern on the watch list or the no-fly list, so we have a number of layers of security beyond the airport checkpoint. We gather as much information about a passenger as the law allows without profiling.
    John Pistole
  • One of the nastiest aspects of the 'no-fly list' — and believe it or not, its authors are proud of this part — is that you can't find out whether you're on it until you've paid for your ticket and are standing in line to get your boarding pass. Denied the service that you paid for, to my knowledge there is no way to get your money back. Nor is there any way to find out why you're on the list, or how you can get off. It is known that civil rights advocates of various kinds have been placed on the list, apparently because they're civil rights advocates.
    L. Neil Smith
