Security at George Bush International Airport

Strict security measures have become a part of the Houston Airport System. All passengers go through TSA pre-screening checkpoints.

Advanced Imaging Technology

Houston Airport has integrated a new technology, called “Advanced Imaging Technology” (AIT). After arriving at an AIT checkpoint, you will step into the unit and get your body scanned in a specific position. This will allow TSA agents to check if you have any dangerous objects hidden under your clothes.

Passengers have the right to ask for a physical screening. However, some of them may still be asked to go through AIT screening for a more detailed check. Following TSA policies, the majority of passengers at Houston International Airport flights are not subject to the AIT screening.

Enhanced pat-down screening system at IAH Airport

The US Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has introduced new security screening technology for the passengers of IAH Airport flights that is known as an enhanced “pat-down” check. TSA agents inspect a passenger with their hands, without using a metal-detecting wand. This will let them find weapons, explosives, and other dangerous objects under the layers of clothing. During the head-to-foot inspection, TSA agents must comment on their actions. This must be done as part of the airport's ethics.

The passengers that have flights from George Bush Intercontinental Airport always have the right to a private screening. They can also ask for an inspection to be made in a closed place due to religious or any other considerations. In addition, TSA agents perform a “modified pat-down” inspection for children under the age of 12 who require an additional inspection.
