The TSA is now allowing travelers to wear shoes through airport security, ending a rule in place since 2006. Here's what to know in Michigan.

Travelers are no longer required to remove their shoes during TSA security screenings, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem announced Tuesday.

Since at least 2011, officials at DHS have promised a shoes-on future, and the department’s own science arm developed and licensed a “high definition–advanced imaging technology shoe scanner.” In January, the DHS announced that the machine would be deployed by 2026, promising, in a demonstration with the TSA, a footwear scan in seconds.

There's some good news for travelers going through TSA screening areas at Jacksonville International Airport: your shoes can stay on. Here's why.

The TSA has eliminated the 19-year-old policy, effective immediately. Policies on liquids will remain in place.

A Massachusetts law enforcement and homeland security consultant who helped draft some of the first rules requiring passengers to remove their shoes at airport security checkpoints says the decision to end the policy raises concerns.
