New next generation security scanners to be used by Bristol Airport
They have cost over £10m.
An investment of £11.5 million has been used by Bristol Airport in next generation security scanners.
This enables all customers travelling through security the ability to keep mobile phones, laptops and liquids in their hand luggage.
Graeme Gamble, Chief Operating Officer, Bristol Airport said:
“We are delighted all customers travelling from Bristol Airport will benefit from state-of-the-art technology being introduced at security. The new equipment will reduce customer stress and inconvenience as the need for 100ml liquids to be placed in clear, plastic bags and removed from hand baggage will no longer be required.
"The new process delivers a much more customer friendly security operation using the latest technology and providing enhanced screening, allowing customers to keep personal items in their hand luggage."
