NEW ORLEANS (WGNO) — The weather is shifting which means the holiday season is upon us. With that comes travel and the Transportation Security Administration at the Louis Armstrong airport is preparing for the influx of passengers. To enhance security, TSA officials said they are installing 11 new automated screening lanes with computed Tomography scanners at the airport checkpoint.

Installation of the lanes began months ago, according to TSA officials and is ongoing. "Once complete, the new equipment will allow for two extra lanes during the busy Super Bowl departures period, bringing the total from 15 to 17 lanes," said MSY officials. The scanners will provide a clear 3-D image of what is in a passenger's bag and body cavity.
