This article describes how to enable an airlines internal no fly list (black list).  There are various reasons why an airline would maintain a separate list of passengers than the list that is provided by Transport Canada (TC) or the Transport Security Administration (TSA).  Enabling this feature allows the airline to be alerted when a passenger on the list is attempting to travel on one of their flights.
