Could Air Travel Be Safer This Thanksgiving If Your Luggage Were
Separated From Your Flight?
Thursday November 27, 9:21 am ET
A New Transportation Security Proposal Being Discussed In
Washington, D.C. Says "Yes"
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 27, 2003-- Universal Express
(OTCBB:USXP - News), a transportation logistics company based in New
York City and Boca Raton, has proposed a new security plan White
Paper to increase the safety of airline passengers traveling the
Thanksgiving holiday.
The White Paper proposes that airline passengers are less likely to
become targets of travel-related terrorism when baggage is separated
from passengers. The security plan encourages airline passengers to
ship their luggage ahead by private carrier. Members of the U.S.
Congress, federal agencies and airline industry trade groups are
discussing the new security proposal.
Richard Altomare, USXP CEO and author of the White Paper
notes, "Yes, I am absolutely convinced that Thanksgiving holiday air
travel can be safer if passengers were separated from their luggage.
A reduction in on-board passenger luggage correlates to a direct
reduction in the ability for terrorists to get threatening devices
onboard. Without advance notice regarding the transportation mode of
the pre-shipped luggage, the likelihood of attacks on Americans is
further reduced. Passengers will have greater confidence in the
overall security of the travel industry. There will also be no
reason for airlines to continue to charge additional fees to a
traveler that cooperates with the new baggage shipping system. This
should result in lower ticket costs as well."
