TSA Ends Shoe Removal Policy at U.S. Airports

The TSA has implemented a new policy allowing travelers to keep their shoes on during security screenings at some U.S. airports, aiming to streamline the process ahead of major events like the Olympics and World Cup. The change, already in effect at select airports, is part of broader efforts to improve efficiency and security, with plans to expand nationwide. The policy shift follows technological advancements and research into new screening methods, including shoe-specific scanners.
