Travel has changed drastically in the last 10 years, and business travelers in particular have new needs and expectations on the road. As a result, hotels, airlines and operators work tirelessly to keep up with advancing technology, modernizing traditional amenities, and allowing for a more seamless booking and trip experience.

Depending on the technology used, the security official may well see everything there is to see, on a monitor that may show her completely nude. At least the scanner will spare her a hands-on pat down – unless, of course, there’s a suspicious object.
