Checked Baggage Screening

What safeguards are in place to protect my checked baggage?



To ensure the highest quality of service, CAS baggage employees are closely monitored by
direct supervision and a Closed Circuit Television System. Using a state-of-the-art
Screening Control Center, CAS supervisors can evaluate baggage inspections in real-time
or replay video footage to ensure that your luggage leaves checked baggage screening
locations in the same order and condition as it arrived. At no time do CAS personnel screen
baggage or perform their duties alone, unobserved or unsupervised.

CAS Baggage Screeners take personal accountability and pride in their work. A CAS Notice
of Inspection (NOI) will be inserted into your luggage to let you know that your checked
baggage was inspected. A CAS NOI is unique and differs from the TSA’s NOI—on it, you will
find the badge number of the screener who conducted the inspection and a stamp indicating
when and where the baggage inspection occurred. If you did not find a CAS NOI in your
luggage, a physical inspection of your luggage was not required.
