[br]The worst part about going through a TSA security checkpoint to get to your flight is, well, every part. From waiting in line while fretting about the time, to taking off your shoes, to separating your stuff into bins, each moment is an annoyance. But the process may improve in the future as the TSA invests in more CT scanners for carry-on bags, meaning that travelers should be able to leave their laptops in their bags, and possibly small amounts of liquids someday, too.[br]The TSA announced late last month that it is ordering 300 new CT scanners—the initials stand for computed tomography—at a price of $96.8 million. While 22 CT scanners are already in place at checkpoints at airports such as Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson and Chicago O’Hare, the new machines on order represent a significant ramp-up of a technology they first started testing in this manner in 2017.[br][br]The TSA says its goal is to eventually have the machines at every security checkpoint, and that the 300 new ones will be deployed by 2020.[br][br] |
