Israel: Passengers must be seated half an hour before landing
Israel is tightening its security again, because of the fears following the recent death of a Hezbollah terror mastermind Imad Mugniyah, UPI reports. Passengers on all domestic and international flights landing in Israel must now be seated 30 minutes before landing. The prior security arrangements required only 15 minutes.
The Transport Ministry said it is giving the flight crew more time to spot suspicious passengers and to make it harder for passenger to hijack a plane.
I would think that "more time to notice suspicious passengers" should happen in the beginning of a flight, rather than at the end, but what do I know about airline security.
