The ban that was in place for 25 years has been lifted at airports in one country.

New changes in US airports

There has been an interesting update at US airports - the screening process before flights has become faster and easier. Passengers no longer need to remove their shoes during the screening, thanks to new X-ray technology.

Do you remember how 25 years ago, passengers at American airports had to undress and take off their shoes before going through security? This rule was established after a passenger named Richard Reid attempted to smuggle a bomb in his shoe onto an American Airlines flight in 2001. Unfortunately, regular scanners did not detect this threat.

The lifting of the requirement to remove shoes is a step toward modernizing the screening process and improving passenger service. What a gain! Now people will pass through security faster and save some Time. This decision makes traveling more comfortable and efficient for all passengers, noted US Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem.

Lines at security checkpoints in airports now often become simply enormous, particularly older individuals and the ill find it difficult. This new update represents an important step in improving the aviation security system.
