LIAT announced that effective today passengers using its service to the USA and its territories will experience added security measures.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

These measures are in line with updated Transportation Security Administration (TSA) regulations the company said.<\/p>\n

“Passengers travelling to the US territory of Puerto Rico (and St. Thomas as of July 1st) on LIAT will encounter new and enhanced security measures for checked bags, hand luggage and personal electronic devices (PEDs) such as laptops, iPads and tablets at check-in and boarding gate,” LIAT announced.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

“A short security interview is also a part of the new security measures,” the company added.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

These new security measures affect all airlines operating direct commercial services to the USA and its territories.<\/p>\n

“LIAT therefore advises all passengers travelling to the USA and its territories to arrive at the airport two hours prior to departure to ensure they have sufficient time to satisfy all other airport and airline formalities.”<\/p>
