  1. New TSA policy on knives, bats sparks backlash

  3. Knives on planes: A good idea? Really?

    The Transportation Security Administration says passengers may carry pocket knives and souvenir baseball bats onto planes starting next month. Flight attendants and family members of the 9/11 terror victims are upset. Pocket knives can be as lethal as the box cutters that the hijackers wielded on Sept. 11, they say.

  6. Chan Lowe: TSA begins allowing small knives, etc.

    Like many other travelers, I&rsquo;ve lost several keychain pocketknives to the TSA that I forgot to remove from the ring. I once lost a drawing pen, then I figured out that by removing the point from the handle and packing it separately, the TSA&rsquo;s suspicions that I was carrying a potential weapon would be allayed (even though I could easily reassemble it on board the plane and use it to poke my seatmate).

  7. Now boarding: Scary new stuff like sports equipment

    A small knife -- think of the pocket-sized, fold-up, Boy Scout variety -- is a limited weapon. So even though the term &ldquo;box cutter&rdquo; still sends chills down our spines, it shouldn&rsquo;t frighten us too much to contemplate the Transportation Security Administration&rsquo;s announcement that it will <a href="http://www.latimes.com/business/money/la-fi-mo-tsa-knives-20130305,0,4264518.story">permit knives</a> with blades shorter than 6 centimeters -- about 2.4 inches.

  11. TSA tips set for Travel Show

    The most entertaining moment from my last trip through an LAX checkpoint was when the gentleman in front of me bent down to untie his shoes, which let his pants slip down below his gluteus d&rsquo;maximus, and he reacted by doing absolutely nothing, in that hip-hoppy manner of young men who can&rsquo;t bother to keep their britches on. Half the other travelers were amused; the other half repulsed.

  12. More fast lanes may be in store for air travelers

    Travelers are as diverse as the destinations they're headed to, but on this much many can agree: Getting through airport security is, at best, annoying. I'm tired of taking my shoes off, sick of removing my laptop and my liquids, fed up with feeling like a suspect in some sinister plot of which I am completely unaware. But after a sit-down with the head of the Transportation Security Administration, I have some hope that things will change for the better in 2013, thanks to a risk-based assessment approach to security.
