Canadian Airports to Enhance Security and Passenger Experience with CATSA's Advanced CT Technology

The CT technology offers a breakthrough in security screening by generating advanced three-dimensional rotatable images, enabling security officers to better detect explosives and other potential threats. For travelers, this innovation means they can keep permitted liquids, aerosols, gels (under 100 mL), medical devices, and large electronics in their carry-on luggage during screening, making the process more seamless and efficient.

The first complete installation of this groundbreaking CT system has already been completed at the newly established ABC security screening checkpoint at Vancouver International Airport. This achievement is the result of close collaboration between CATSA and the Airport Authority, setting the stage for more upgrades to follow.

Additional installations are set to begin at other airports across Canada starting in the fall of 2024. These efforts will continue over the coming years, with airport authorities playing a crucial role in the successful nationwide deployment of this technology. Their ongoing cooperation is essential to making this project a reality.

CATSA, in partnership with its third-party screening contractors and key air travel partners, is committed to delivering top-tier security screening and service throughout the rollout of this state-of-the-art CT technology, ensuring safer and smoother air travel for everyone.
