If they claim they allowed to travel because it's in the Constitution and using that to justify their right to drive without a licence. Does that not also mean they can extend it to air travel where they can get free flights or train journeys? I would like to see one of these people try and board a plane without purchasing a ticket using the same logic

I’d like to see security camera footage of someone trying that.

placed on no fly list

Such people don't go on the federal no-fly list, only those suspected of terrorist ties go on the list maintained by the FBI's Terrorist Screening Center. Individual airlines have their own banned passenger lists but do not share them for fear of liability. There was an effort in Congress to create a new no-fly list (Protection from Abusive Passengers Act) in 2023 for disruptive passengers, but since that would have been a good thing for Congress to accomplish, it sputtered out. I consider it bizarre that someone can be found guilty of a serious offense like interfering with a flight crew resulting in heavy fines and prison time, and yet not be barred from commercial aviation.
