New airport security measures in effect for U.S.-bound flights

Changes are coming to airport security and it could delay some international travelers. The new rules cover all inbound flights to the United States. 

Starting Thursday, new screening procedures go into effect for the more than 300,000 passengers arriving in the U.S. each day.

This summer, The Trump administration banned carry-on laptops on flights originating from certain airports in the Middle East, over concerns terrorists could hide a bomb inside the electronics.

That ban since been lifted, but on Thursday, new airport security measures are taking effect on all U.S.-bound flights. The new procedures apply to all passengers, including American citizens, on more than 2,100 flights from around the world.

The new measures could include short security interviews including questions about your luggage and your travel plans.

Delta Airlines said it was telling passengers traveling to the U.S. to arrive at the airport at least three hours before their flight to allow extra time to get through security.
