GULFPORT, Miss. (AP) - The Transportation Security Administration will begin an expedited screening process for select flyers at the Gulfport-Biloxi International Airport.

Officials said the new screening process will allow flyers to leave on their shoes, light outerwear and belt, keep their laptop in its case and keep compliant liquids and gels in their carry-on bag.

Airport Authority Executive Director Clay Williams tells The Sun Herald (https://bit.ly/1Snn8Tc) having expedited screening is a great convenience for passengers.



The South Mississippi airport will become one of only 150 airports in the country where passengers can experience the expedited screening.
