Passenger and Baggage Screening

Here is a brief overview:

1. Passenger Screening:

• Security Checkpoints: Passengers undergo screening at security checkpoints before entering the boarding area.
• Metal Detectors: Detect metal objects on passengers that could be potential threats.
• Body Scanners: Advanced imaging technology to identify concealed items on the body.
• Pat-Downs: Physical searches conducted when necessary to ensure thorough screening.
• Explosive Trace Detection: Swabs used to test for explosive residue on passengers and their belongings.

2. Baggage Screening:

• X-ray Scanners: Baggage is scanned using X-ray machines to detect suspicious items.
• Explosive Detection Systems: Specialized equipment to identify explosives or dangerous substances in luggage.
• Manual Inspection: Baggage may be manually inspected if flagged by screening systems.
• Checked Baggage Screening: Checked baggage undergoes screening before being loaded onto aircraft.

3. Prohibited Items: Screening procedures identify and confiscate items such as weapons, sharp objects, liquids exceeding limits, and other dangerous or restricted items.
4. Advanced Security Technologies: Implementation of advanced technologies like CT scanners for enhanced detection capabilities and improved security measures.
5. Compliance and Training: Security personnel receive training to operate screening equipment, identify threats, and ensure compliance with security protocols.
6. Efficiency and Passenger Experience: Balancing security measures to maintain safety while minimizing inconvenience to passengers and ensuring a smooth screening process.

By rigorously screening passengers and baggage, airports can enhance security, prevent potential threats, and maintain the safety and integrity of air travel for passengers, crew, and airport personnel.
