People will no longer have to de-shoe on the way to catching a flight at U.S. airports, following an announcement from Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem.

FOX54’s set Manus speaks with passengers at Augusta Regional Airport to share their reaction to the change in the TSA's shoe removal policy.

“Flight attendants are going to be sitting ducks.” TSA head John Pistole said the changes, which take effect April 25, will bring the United States in line with international rules.

The TSA is changing its policy on 11 previously restricted items after new technology.

Passengers at some airports across the U.S. no longer have to remove their shoes during regular TSA security checks, two sources familiar with the change confirmed to CBS News on Monday.
