TSA Launches Self-Service Security Screening at Las Vegas Airport

The new system aims to streamline the screening process and improve passenger experience, starting with TSA PreCheck members.

A new self-service security screening system is being tested at Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas, focusing on TSA PreCheck passengers.
Developed by Vanderlande Industries with a $2.5 million contract from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, the prototype aims to make airport security more efficient.
Passengers can navigate the screening process at their own pace, with video instructions and the option for live video chat assistance from TSA officers.
The system is designed to reduce the need for pat-downs and secondary screenings by allowing passengers to address security alerts themselves.
Feedback and performance data will be collected over a six-month trial to evaluate the system's effectiveness and potential expansion to other airports.
