Though they were called FAM (Federal Air Marshalls)?

Depends. If it's an LEO travelling on federal business, then they can carry the gun with them if they have the proper paperwork. I had a group of about 17 FBI agents travelling from MEM to DCA on day on federal business. Also, if it's a guard transporting a prisoner, then I believe they are licensed to be armed as well.
