So how do we increase security in the sky? In my humble opinion lighters and matches and any incendiary items should be outright banned. It should not be allowed to be in carry on luggage and also in checked baggage. I know that these measures will be inconvenience to some people but that is what the reality is now and we should not relax it under any circumstances. Another is that only one carry on luggage should be allowed to taken per person and it must be thoroughly checked even after it has gone through the scanners.
The taking off of shoes and the belt and the metals items can continue but in addition to that every body passing through scanners must be checked individually by the male and female officer. Because it is obvious that even after passing through the scanners the alleged Nigerian guy was able to sneak the power stuck with his leg. So there can be two layers of security, one is the scanner and one is the human touch. Checked baggage should be checked again by the security official once in front of the passenger so that it before going on the plane it could be taken out if found suspicious.
I know it is a pain in the neck and there will be long lines (and complaints) but it is just necessary. On the Domestic flights passengers should be asked to come at least 3 hours before departure and at least 5 hours before International flights.
The name of every passenger arriving from International destinations should be thoroughly checked against the entire list the government has compiled and that individual should be thoroughly checked before issuing any visa or boarding any flight bound for the
I believe that there will be additional security measures that will and should be taken so that every body will feel safe and I believe that even though it will be a hassle but generally people will feel more secure.
