Airline industry begins screening 100 percent of air cargo on domestic passenger aircraft
The Transportation Security Administration announced this week that the airline industry has met a key requirement of the 9/11 Act by screening 100 percent of air cargo on domestic passenger aircraft.
Airlines carried 16.5 per cent less cargo and 7.2 per cent fewer people in June than the same month a year ago, with no sign yet of the global recession lifting, an industry body said on Thursday.
