The State Department announced on Monday that it had lifted Laptop restrictions on flights departing Saudi Arabia, marking the final country and cities that were impacted by the months old ban.
With Monday’s announcement, Jeddah and Riyadh were removed.
For all of the airports that were impacted the ban, they have until July 19 to increase screening for explosives. In addition, the airports have 120 days into install other screening techniques in order to be compliant with rules imposed by the TSA and State Department. Otherwise the ban will be put back in place on non-compliant airports.
