    ORLANDO, Fla. – Airport security routines might soon change for travelers throughout the United States, as the hassle of removing shoes at checkpoints could become obsolete.

    The Transportation Security Administration has announced plans to do away with the requirement for non-TSA PreCheck passengers to remove their shoes during security checks.

    The change comes as the agency rolls out advanced scanning technology capable of detecting threats without the need for travelers to go barefoot.

    At Orlando International Airport, travelers expressed relief and optimism over the new policy.

    “I think it’s great as long as it’s safe,” said one traveler.

    Another added, “I think it’s a great idea, especially if you’re traveling with kids.”

    “As long as they can see if nobody got razor blades or anything else, then yeah, why not?” said a passenger waiting to go through security.

    This policy change is significant since shoe removal has been a staple of air travel routines for many, dating back to their childhoods. Interestingly, when questioned, several passengers admitted they were unclear about the origins of this rule.

    The rule dates back to the aftermath of a 2001 incident in which Richard Reid, later dubbed the “shoe bomber,” attempted to ignite explosives hidden in his sneakers on a flight from Paris to Miami. Passengers and crew subdued Reid, but the threat led to sweeping changes in airport security, including the shoe removal requirement introduced in 2006.

    Now, with upgraded scanners being deployed at select airports, the TSA says passengers at eligible locations will be able to keep their shoes on.

    “I think with all the systems they use now with the scanning shoes or no shoes, if there’s something in there, they’re going to find it,” said another passenger.

    However, the agency noted that the policy may not be in effect everywhere immediately, and travelers may still be asked to remove their shoes at some security checkpoints.
