BREAKING NEWS: The long-held gripe from business travellers and frequent flyers about the US draconian, and incredibly slow, immigration and security procedures could be about to be addressed. Plans are afoot to allow a pre-screening plan for certain airline passengers. This would allow them to bypass normal procedures after registering for the scheme and their personal details biometrically stored. There will be accost to register, but this should be offset by skipping those long lines. Airlines will find out in January how this will work and which passengers can benefit.
