Theft or Fun?
 

Wanted to ask everyone this question: Lets say that you have a formerly related person you know, and she/he works for a major airline. You find out that this person for a period of YEARS goes into your travel reservations and records. Peeks around and stays aware of you every move, without your knowledge. Then you determine and confirm this is going on. You report this to the airline. What should the airline do?

Airline should handle this according to their internal policies, and should not inform you of the outcome.

Not clear if the OP is the one being stalked...or the formerly related airline employee doing the stalking who is worried about what the airline will do to him/her...and how does one become aware this is going on...and confirm it...and prove it...

and not quite clear what the thread's title has to do w/ the scenario.

I think they're wondering if this snooping would be considered theft of private info or just a fun prank.

Are you the airline person or the stalkee, ckheisler?

No one right answer to your non-specific trollish question

It would be interesting to know exactly

how u were "formerly related"

"What should the airline do?"

What is within the scope of the law, their policy, and their collective bargaining agreement.

Did the employee do anything with this information? Did they do those with others, in which case they may claim they were just checking on seat availability, upgrade possibilities, etc?

As you give no time-frame between when you reported it and when you posted this, impossible to say what the airline might do. If this was recent, I assume they are investingating the matter and following procedure.

What should they do? Sack them and possible criminal charges for accessing information. I work for the Government and we all know that for accessing information not pertinant to our job is a criminal offence.
