Airport Travel Safety



Remember the good old days when you traveled by air, walked through a scanning machine and kept your shoes on? That all stopped when some idiot decided he could sabotage a flight by adding explosives to his shoe. Now, thanks to that genius, when we check in for our flights, we must take our shoes off. This adds to your check in time and makes your check in a hassle.

Well hopefully soon that will become a thing of the past. New technology called "MagShoe" created in Israel is now being placed in airports. So far, only a handful like Israel and India have the technology. It has been shown to the US and hopefully US airports will institute the technology soon.

The MagShoe is placed after the body scanner at the airport. Once you go through the body scan, you simply place your feet, shoes and all, in the scanner. Just a few seconds and you are on your way. Think how much time will be saved and how nice it will be to keep your shoes on once again!

Watch the short video below, just click on the link. You will want to travel again!
