Airport security protocols

Airport security protocols involve several measures to ensure passenger and staff safety. When entering security, travelers must present identification and boarding passes. Items are placed in bins for X-ray screening to detect prohibited objects. Metal detectors, scanners, and sometimes pat-downs are used to further check individuals. Laptops and liquids may need to be separately screened or follow specific size rules. Security personnel monitor for suspicious behavior and enforce regulations. The goal is to prevent dangerous items from being brought onboard while maintaining a smooth and efficient process for travelers.
