Good idea for airport security checkpoints
There’s a new player in some United States airports (both Houston airports, New York’s LaGuardia, Liberty in Newark, N.J., and Dulles in Washington): ReturnKey (www.itemreturn.com), which promises to ship items confiscated at the airport security check.
From the AP:
If a Transportation Security Administration agent wants to confiscate an item, the traveler would be directed to the ReturnKey kiosk by the agent, said Steve Kranyec, ReturnKey’s president. The unit asks for a mailing address and verifies it against postal records. It also asks travelers to identify the item and if it is a dangerous parcel, locks the customer out. The system doubles as a conventional postal mailbox.
I like that idea …

Maybe we can link with each other seeing we both are in the same game of trying to change airport security for tne better. My site is more set on one aspect of the issue; ending “ticketed passengers only”.
Please look ar my site and get back to me and tell me what you think!
