IATA: Laptop Cabin Ban Ineffective
Montreal - QNA

The ban imposed by the United States and the United Kingdom on laptops in cabin baggage on certain flights will not be an effective security measure, the International Air Transport Association (IATA) said. In a strongly worded speech, IATA chief executive Alexandre de Juniac said the ban also caused commercial distortions, according to the (BBC).
The ban covers inbound flights on airlines operating out of 10 airports in the Middle East, North Africa and Turkey. The British ban is similar but applies to different airlines. Airline passengers on 14 carriers are subject to the ban.
In his speech in Montreal, de Juniac questioned the measures, saying: "Why don't the US and the UK have a common list of airports? How can laptops be secure in the cabin on some flights and not others... especially on flights originating at a common airport?".
He added: "The current measures are not an acceptable long-term solution to whatever threat they are trying to mitigate. Even in the short term it is difficult to understand their effectiveness. And the commercial distortions they create are severe".
De Juniac said that IATA is "deeply concerned with political developments pointing to a future of more restricted borders and protectionism".
