TSA must have a lot of time on their hands to figure this one out. Explosive thermoses is the decision imposed by the TSA as a viable form of terrorism. Even though we can't carry liquids on the plane, why would anyone bring a thermoses? In fact, I fly routinely and never saw anyone carry one, unless they work at the airport or doing construction work at the airport. I wonder what will be next. Perhaps, explosive pens.
(The Hill) Holiday travelers went into Christmas weekend with a new warning by the Transportation Security Administration about the potential for explosives packed in Thermoses.
"The possible tactics terrorists might use include the concealment of explosives inside insulated beverage containers, so in the coming days, passengers flying within and to the U.S. may notice additional security measures related to insulated beverage containers," the TSA cautioned in a public notice.
Even though the beverages contained within are already prohibited, the TSA said that "additional security measures related to insulated beverage containers" would be in place at screening checkpoints, including X-ray, inspections and technology to detect explosive traces.
