The Bureau of Civil Aviation Security (BCAS) has mandated airlines in India to ensure the timely delivery of checked-in luggage to passengers, with the first bag to arrive at the baggage carousel within 10 minutes of landing and the last one within 30 minutes. This move aims to mitigate the baggage delay chaos that has been prevalent. Concurrently, Heathrow Airport, along with other UK airports, is set to enhance passenger experience by introducing new high-tech security scanners by the end of summer. These scanners will allow passengers to carry liquids of more than 100ml in hand luggage, marking the end of current liquid restrictions. The initiative reflects a broader trend towards adopting advanced technology in airports, including the expansion of facial recognition technology, to streamline security processes and improve the overall travel experience.
