Beginning tomorrow (May 8, 2012) at 7 a.m. EST, passengers will no longer be permitted to wear undergarments of any kind on all domestic flights originating from within the contiguous United States.".
The new ban will not apply to pilots, federal air marshalls, members of the military, TSA employees, airport staff, celebrities, members of congress, or political allies.
Travellers attempting to enter the sterile area wearing prohibited panties face civil penalties of up to $11,000.
TSA says that this is one more layer of security in the ongoing War on Terror... Or perhaps one fewer layer...
