Notes from the Electronic Cottage 2/28/08

Producer/host: Jim Campbell

Do you fly regularly, even a few times a year? How do you like flying these days? If you are like most travelers, probably not very much. But in addition to the security hassles and delays that are part of many trips these days, there is also something else you might not like too much if you knew about. We refer, of course, to the information amassed in the PNR, or Passenger Name Record, that gets created or built upon every time you fly.
