Bag helps Laptop Pass Air Security


(Read the complete article ... )

Summary : For years at airport security checkpoints, “Laptops must be removed form their cases and placed on the belt.” The Transportation Security Administration has given the go ahead for passengers to use newly designed carry-on bags that will let them pass through security without having to take their laptops out for the X-ray inspection. It is called “checkpoint friendly” laptop cases. There are two problems with using existing laptop cases, and many of the cases are so crammed with extra gear that the computer is obscured. The other problem is security problem. Designing laptop cases the can improve customer service while security at a high level. The agency` director predicted that various new laptop cases that conform to government requirements would be in wide use by the holidays in December.

My opinion : It is difficult to use a laptop on the flight, and a big problem. New laptop design will solve this problem, so we can get lots of benefits. But we have to find solutions to put these practical use, because there are some troubles with governments and manufacturers. It’s not easy to find a solution each other. Consumer have to buy a new bag too, so I didn’t think it is not useful way. I think that it had better to develop new inspector machine to solve these problems for a long term. Then we don’t have to worry about these troubles. In my opinion it is safer and cheaper way for consumer to develop a new device.

i hope they will find safer and cheper way to sole this problem.
nem laptop will be made to solve this problem. But i think they will make cover for laptop much better one.

I think best way is they forget about their computer duriing their flight, and enjoy it!
we don't have any problems:security and think about to get newly designed carry-on bags.

I definitely agree with you. When I came here, I also had to take out my laptop for the X-ray inspections.
It was the cumbersome processes and took much time. Nowadays, although many people take their laptops on the airplane, I think it is not good solution for people to buy new bag only to pass through security. People who take airplanes are citizens and customers, so governments have to find the solution better than every people buy new laptop cases.

these day, Labtop is necessaries for us. maybe almost people have labtop.

i'm sure that every one who is using airport wanna save their time, and no one wanna be checked their stuff by other people,but this process is necessary for our safety.
i think we just have to stand until they find the new way.

if the government find the new solution, it's gonna be best way.

I also think we need safer and cheaper way to solve this problem. We need using the laptop during we get on airplanes, especially for long distance flights. Even though we don't need using the laptop during the flight, we have to pass the security, X-ray inspections to bring the laptop. So, anyway, we need a best solution for this problem.

But I have no idea for the best way to solve this problem now. Maybe developing machines is better, I think.

After the 9.11 terroism, the security in airports became very strict. I'm not sure this problem is also related to the terrorism, but using airplanes always take too much time. We have to go to the airport two hours earlier before the flight time, and security check also takes too much time. That's why a lot of people want save time by using laptops, and some of them is working with it. However, all we can do is just to wait until the government finds the solution.
