Due to recent events I thought it would be a good idea to bring to your attention flight and airline restrictions put in place since allegations of a terror plot targeting airliners flying between the UK and USA have surfaced.
If you are traveling from the Untied States to Great Britain or vise versa, make sure you are aware of all these rules and restrictions so your business trip or vacation is not disrupted.
- Travelers boarding commercial flights at a U.S. airport will not be allowed to carry "any liquids, including beverages, hair gels, and lotions" onto airliners.
- Passengers on flights from Great Britain are prohibited from carrying electronics on board. There are no such restrictions on people traveling on domestic flights or from the U.S. to Great Britain.
- Beverages purchased beyond security checkpoints must be consumed before boarding --- they will not be permitted aboard the aircraft.
- TSA screeners will recheck every bag at boarding gates for banned items, preventing passengers from carrying items purchased in boarding areas.
- Gate-side inspections are taking place for all passengers on flights to Great Britain. On other flights, the TSA is conducting random gate-side inspections.
- Federal security directors --- the top TSA officials at airports --- have discretion on how to implement the new policy. They can also use any resource available to conduct the inspections, meaning they can use their own screeners, state and local law enforcement personnel or airline personnel.
