European airports unhappy with easing of ban on liquids

In less than two months, the EU is scheduled to start lifting its ban on liquids in hand luggage. Only airports in the area are saying not so fast; the technology to sniff out explosives is not very “reliable.”

European airports and airlines are lobbying the EU to extend the ban until better equipment is available. The EU isn’t buying and plans to go along with its plans as scheduled.
