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 airport operators 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 devices may not be permitted onboard the aircraft.

Ensure your mobile devices 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.
