Qld: Terror plot sparks security measures in Brisbane

Passengers flying from Brisbane to America today will be subject to more stringent
security measures .. following the alleged terror plot to blow up trans-Atlantic planes.

JIM CARDEN from Brisbane Airport Corporation says only one direct flight .. Qantas
flight QF-175 from Brisbane to Los Angeles .. at 11.05 am (AEST) will be affected.

He says passengers won't be allowed to take liquids or gels on the plane with them
.. and their shoes will be screened.

He's advising passengers the only things they can take on board are passports .. wallets
.. and medication.

Mr CARDEN says while the flight's not expected to be delayed .. passengers should arrive
earlier and expect processing to take a little longer.
