CWT ALERT - Security measures on flights

[Infopoint]

*Security measures on flights*

The US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced plans to step up 
security checks on

airports with direct flights to the US from Europe, the Middle East and 
Africa.

Also in England and Philippines airports have been applied the rules 
requested by the US Department of Security on all flights direct to USA, 
coming from Europe, Middle East and Africa.

Airlines and airportoperators have been told to strengthen screening of 
clothing, shoes and mobile phones, including smartphones. Passengers may 
be asked to turn on devices, including mobile phones. Powerless 
devicesmaynot be permitted onboard the aircraft.

Ensure your mobiledevices have sufficient charge to go through screening.

It is advisable to consider longer waiting times and to go to the 
airport more in advance.

CWT will continue to monitor the situation and, if appropriate, will 
provide important updates.

Best Regards,
