Now I really want Concierge Key with American…

21

Via the New York Post:

Two star-struck American Airlines workers at JFK used a secure pass to escort Kanye West and Kim Kardashian around a screening checkpoint — a stunning breach that delayed their fellow passengers by nearly an hour, sources said yesterday.

When they arrived at JFK, they cleared the customs and baggage areas along with fellow travelers — and that’s when the American Airlines employees offered to help rush them to the gate.

The workers are part of American’s Concierge Key program for “select” customers — and were accompanied by an employee of airline contractor Air Serv, sources said.

One of the American employees flashed a SIDA (Secure Identification Display Area) card, which allows access to restricted areas of the airport, the sources said.

So is this a new Concierge Key benefit? 😀

    The fact tat he was such a self centered egotist, (jerk), at the Grammy's is reason enough to make him wait in line like anyone else.

    Lucky has been banned from United and has been for some time. Why don't y'all think he ever does trip reports for UA?

    @ theblakefish - Please step back away from the monitor very slowly and lay down the crack pipe...

    @theblakefish - What a random comment to make, pretty sure the only delusional one here is you.

  5. Danny Guest

    banned from United? What does that have to do w/ the above post?

  6. DaninSTL Guest

    What are the odds that one of them has a handgun in their luggage? Just saying.

  7. theblakefish Guest

    Do you want Concierge Key because you are under the delusional idea that you will get this type of service?

    Or is it because you have been banned from UNITED and you will never have the chance to obtain Global Services? For that matter, you will never have the chance to obtain a single seat on UNITED...ever...

    I'm just wondering...

    I'm with @wwk5d: Where was that private jet when most needed?

  9. wwk5d Guest

    Actually, if anything, I'm disappointed these two flew commercial, with all the money they have.

  11. oneeyejack Guest

    kanye is not baller enough to have his own plane? WEAK!

    No chance TSA was going to let KK opt out of the nudoscope or an enhanced pat down!

    It's so ridiculous that we live in a society where something like this results in an entire airport or terminal getting shut down for an entire hour.

  14. GrampaGrapa Guest

    Yo Imma let you finish, but my baby is as much of a publicity stunt as this stunt is publicity

  15. DiscoPapa Member

    They are dating and are expecting a child together, so I would assume so...

  16. Iolaire McFadden Guest

    Do they fly together regularly?

  17. JRL Member

    He's a risk factor for grabbing the mic during the safety demo and her "seat" definitely floats in the unlikely event of a water landing.

    Yo, I'll let you finish, but Kardashian is one of the biggest terrorist threats of all time!

  19. Jason Guest

    Am I the only one who thinks it unlikely that Kim Kardashian and Kanye West posed a terrorism threat?
