25 Years After 9/11: How Airport Security Transformed Worldwide
Twenty-five years after the September 11 attacks, airport security worldwide has undergone significant changes. Before 2001, security was lighter, with private contractors handling checks and fewer restrictions on passengers. The attacks, which killed nearly 3,000 people, led to the creation of the US Transportation Security Administration (TSA), federalizing airport security. Measures such as reinforced cockpit doors, stricter ID checks, and restrictions on liquids were introduced to prevent similar threats, fundamentally transforming air travel security protocols globally.
