In the wake of the attempted Christmas Day bombing of a plane from Amsterdam bound for Detroit, the Transportation Security Administration has worked to continuously update their security measures. Read our report from last week about a recent security directive.
Just today, the TSA released another statement about U.S. bound planes. The directive, which takes effect tomorrow (Jan. The important to budget travel is to approach in advance. When it comes to family trips, globetrotting, well-deserved trips and/or going to see new destinations we have never been before, the actuality of cost and budgeting is generally in the back of our mind. Preparation and consuming our travel budget wisely is a main concern for most families. Curbing spending and charges, while still experiencing your vacation to its fullest, is the key to certain accomplishment and fiscal obligation. Your pocketbook and family will thank you! The thought behind economizing money while touring is simple: Even if your personal budget is extremely small, you can still take a break and enjoy life! Simply put, life is just too short to never step out of the door or departing the homestead! Also thinking about that while traveling, no matter whether on a finances or not, even the smallest of things can all add op to a large vacation or travel expenses!. 4, 2010) and has no expiration date, includes long-term, sustainable security measures, including enhanced screening of every individual flying into the U.S. from anywhere in the world traveling from or through select countries pegged as terrorist hotbeds. CNN.com reported yesterday that the list of 14 countries includes Afghanistan, Algeria, Cuba, Iran, Iraq, Lebanon, Libya, Nigeria, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, and Yemen.
The directive also increases the use of enhance screen technologies, which means, in part anyway, the full-body scanners weve heard so much about in the past 10 days. CNN reported last week that 150 had been ordered to be placed in airports across the country.
The frustrating part though for many passengers is the vague information put out by the TSA, who are intentionally vague for security reasons. As TSA spokeswoman Lauren Gaches was quoted by the New York Times on Saturday, Passengers should be prepared for additional measures of security, but we cant say what they are."
In-flight measures that were implemented immediately following the Christmas Day attempted bombing such as limited use of blankets and electronics, in-flight progress maps, or access to bathrooms or checked baggage the last 60 minutes of the flight remain at the discretion of individual airlines.
