Say Goodbye to Shoe Removal at Airport Security!

Big changes are coming to airport security. After almost 20 years, the TSA is finally letting passengers keep their shoes on during screening. This new rule starts this Sunday at many major airports and will soon roll out to all U.S. airports.

Why the Change?

The TSA has been working on ways to speed up security lines. Passengers who set off alarms will still need to remove their shoes for extra screening. This is a huge deal since the shoe removal rule began in 2006 after the infamous shoe bomber incident.

Remember Richard Reid?

He tried to blow up a plane with explosives hidden in his shoes. That's why the TSA made everyone take off their shoes. But now, times are changing. The TSA is always looking for better ways to keep passengers safe while making the process smoother.

Get Ready to Keep Your Shoes On!

It's a small change, but it might make your airport experience a little bit easier. The TSA is still focused on security, but they're also trying to improve the passenger experience.
