Airport Chaos Amid Fight Against Terrorism

Airport Chaos Amid Fight Against Terrorism

Passengers must prepare themselves to suffer delays in flights because of the fight against terrorism. The Britishers are ready to fight the terror, and are unwilling to be intimidated by the terrorists.
The crowded places and aviation especially becomes the hot target for the terrorist groups to cause chaos and devastation on a large scale. In order to fight back the terrorists, the Britishers are taking utmost safety measures. The public would have to bear all the delays patiently during the peak season as it is only for their safety.
Ruth Kelly, the Transport Secretary, called a “security summit” of major airlines, airports and government officials yesterday to discuss the concerns, as Mr. Brown said the public had to accept delays. There would be months of disruption following last weekend’s failed car bombings, but stressed on the fact that the measures were necessary for public safety.
Last week almost 3,000 air flights were delayed in Britain and this week, the number is expected to rise to a great extent. Last summer the police foiled an alleged plot to bomb several transatlantic airliners, and afterwards the people had to suffer the delays and chaos. The above picture displays the chaos outside Terminal 4 of Heathrow Airport, which was evacuated on Tuesday after a suspect package was found.
The police have prepared itself for unprecedented emergency and tight security measures have been adopted for sport and live music events likely to attract up to one and a half million spectators.
Central London will be “locked down” as it hosts the opening stage of the Tour de France, the first time the cycling event has come to Britain. Scotland Yard has planned for two years and said it was prepared for a “very high threat level”.
More than 5,000 officers will be on patrol and thousands more are on duty at the British Grand Prix at Silverstone, Wimbledon, Henley regatta and the Live Earth concert at Wembley.
Therefore, it is a request to you all, to cooperate with the government and the police and to bear all the inconvenience caused as your safety is their prime motto.

Security tightens in the U.S.

Sunday, July 1st, 2007

Australian airlines will soon be collecting the fingerprints of the tourists going to the United States because of security reasons.
Australians traveling to the U.S. will have to provide all 10 fingerprints when they enter the country so they can be matched against a database of potential terrorists, according to a report in The Australian. This new system will undergo a trial at 10 major US airports including Qantas, Air New Zealand and United flights to San Francisco International Airport. The airlines are worried about the question of bearing the cost on the whole procedure. They want to know who will take the responsibility of all the expenditure to be done for the security of the U.S. they also want the government to introduce a common standard for data collection and sharing to make the process easier, the report said.
Warren Bennett, the executive director, Board of Airline Representatives of Australia said that it was certain to impose additional operational requirements on the carriers going to the US but the plan had yet to filter through to carriers in Australia.
