TSA Liquid Carry-On Rules May Ease Soon

News summary

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem has signaled that the TSA may soon revise its liquid restrictions for carry-on baggage, potentially allowing travelers to bring larger containers through security checkpoints. The reconsideration reflects a broader effort to modernize airport procedures and follows a recent change permitting passengers to keep their shoes on during screening. Advances in screening technology and pilot programs at select airports are enabling these possible changes, though no nationwide timeline has been set. Previously, the TSA anticipated maintaining liquid restrictions until at least 2040 due to slow adoption of advanced scanners, but the new administration appears poised to speed up this process. The move would align U.S. policy with countries like the UK that are already easing similar restrictions. Authorities caution that any updates will prioritize maintaining robust travel security.
