To be fair ... that may be an important change. A bomb detonated aboard an aircraft may kill those on board. It may also kill folks (and damage structures) on the ground below, if the detonation causes the aircraft to crash.

Sure, detonating a bomb near the security queue will still cause plenty of damage and injuries. On the whole, though, I think this damage would be less than that from a detonation aboard an aircraft in flight.
