Passengers at some U.S. airports no longer have to remove footwear, sources say

Following that incident, airlines and TSA began asking passengers to voluntarily remove their shoes when going through security.

Voluntarily?? When was it ever voluntary?

I was already keeping them on because ei paid $100 and stated my name to tsa once to get the mickey mouse fast pass*

*except every time I fly through Texas where, just like the McDonald's ice cream machine, multipass is closed today

Too late, they already so effectively killed the idea I would rather ride cross country getting a root canal in a van and from a dentist high on meth, and the roads starting to get rough.

That's much preferable to what we call air travel today.

They saw that video of RFK coming out of the bathroom without shoes on, didn’t they?

Bigger worries now for oridary US citizens who happen use the same mode transport as those so called "evil" immigrants that keep their economy alive. Oh America, what have you done.
