Which program provides extra security aboard on high-risk routes?

  1. TSA PreCheck

  2. CAPS-II

  3. Federal Air Marshal Program

  4. Secure Flight

The correct answer is: Federal Air Marshal Program

The Federal Air Marshal Program is the best option for providing extra security aboard high-risk routes because it specifically addresses the need for heightened security measures on these routes. Options A, B, and D do not have the same focus on high-risk routes and may not provide the same level of security. TSA PreCheck is primarily for expedited screening for low-risk travelers, while CAPS-II is an automated risk assessment system for cargo. Secure Flight is a pre-screening program for all passengers, but it does not specifically target high-risk routes. Therefore, the Federal Air Marshal Program is the most appropriate choice for providing extra security on high-risk routes.
