  • Publication number: 20080133285
    Abstract: Our invention is a secure air travel system and method that eliminates security risks associated with passenger baggage by not allowing checked baggage and most carry-on baggage on the airliners that carry passengers. This method creates a two separate classes of air carriers or two classes of air carrier flights. One class transports passengers only and the other class transports only luggage of passengers between various locations. By eliminating the checked bags and most carry-on bags on the passenger-only flights, the security risks from weapons, bombs or other hazardous materials on these bags are totally eliminated from passenger-only flights. This mode of air travel can be implemented to co-exist with the current airlines and air travel methods.
