 Checking the baggage thoroughly is most required in airside because it will
protect the passengers and airplane safe from any blasting or unwanted
incidents.
 Various reports highlighted that drugs, gold, black money and many illegal things
have been passing through the airport through different techniques. To stop such
incidents X-ray scanner is required which will scan the entire body properly.
 Proper security forces are required to avoid or to protect the uncertain
accidents.
 Smoking must need to be prohibited on the airside, which can cause the burn of
the airplane.
 All the foods provided within the flight must need to be checked and tasted to

 In order to reduce the crowd airport authority must need to increase their
landside area.
 Complain booth can be effective for the airport authority so that passengers and
the other people can launch complain if anything unwanted happens.
 The processes are developed for facilitating movement of passengers through

questioned need to be subjected, along with their baggage for conduction of
more detailed inspection.
