New security measures at Sacramento International Airport could mean more delays for travelers, who are advised to arrive at least two hours early to their flights to check in and go through security.TSA workers in Sacramento are adopting stricter standards when it comes to examining electronic devices.The new rules now require any electronic devices larger than a cellphone to be pulled from its bag and placed in a bin.Devices that need to come out include e-readers, tablets and game consoles.The program started in July and has slowly expanded across the country to 280 airports in response to what the Department of Homeland Security calls increased threats to aviation security."Whether you're flying to, from or within the United States, TSA is committed to raising the baseline for aviation security by strengthening the overall security of our commercial aviation network to keep flying as a safe option for everyone," said TSA Acting Administrator Huban A. Gowadia.With the new standards in place in Sacramento, airport officials are recommending passengers allow at least two hours to check in and get through security.Extra delays are expected in the beginning as passengers adapt to the new rules.TSA agents are to be positioned at the head of the screening area to educate travelers on the new rules.TSA pre-check travelers are exempt from the new screenings and can leave devices in their bags when traveling through the designated pre-check line, according to the TSA.
