Passengers leaving Phuket airport now are required to screen their luggage before going inside the building. The screening process at the entrance will be scrapped on April 1, Mrs Monrudee said. "With the in-line screening system, passengers will be more convenient and congestions outside the airport will be reduced," she said.
