📋 Tender Overview
The Transportation Security Administration TSA will be installing state-of-the-art computed tomography CT scanners in the security checkpoint at Tallahassee International Airport TLH and passengers should allow extra time to be screened during that process.Beginning February 14th and through February 25th as the new equipment is being installed in two lanes there will be periodic slowdowns in screening. Passengers should arrive at the airport two hours before flights. Once the lanes are re-opened passengers will notice an improved checkpoint experience.When the CTs are in use travelers do not need to remove electronics or travel-size liquids from carry-on luggage. Passengers in the TSA PreCheck program have that benefit regardless of whether the CT is in use and all travelers are encouraged to sign up for the program.The CT technology utilizes a sophisticated algorithm to analyze the content of the bag and will allow TSA officers to rotate the image and ascertain that no threats are contained in the bag without needing to open the suitcase said Brian Cahill TSAs federal security director for TLH and other airports in Northern Florida. Reducing the number of bags that need a visual inspection improves the security experience.
