Australian Airport Sets Global Security Standard, Leaving TSA's $781 Million Rollout in the Dust
Sydney Kingsford Smith International Airport has completed a government-mandated security overhaul, introducing new features such as mandatory body-scanner screening and CT scanners that allow passengers to keep liquids and electronics in their bags. The upgrades have increased passenger throughput and reduced screening time by 50%. The Australian Government's $2 billion spending aims to improve and speed up security checks for carry-on luggage and passengers.
