Aruban economy affected again: Duty Free Shops Hurt by Last Weeks Terrorism Plot
Aruban economy affected by war on terror. 
Since last weeks terrorism plot was foiled in London, the Transportation Security Administration implemented new guidelines not allowing liquids or gels to be brought aboard airlines. One of the industries affected by these new guidelines were “Duty Free” shops. Many people leaving Aruba take advantage of the duty free purchases prior to departure.
Today, the TSA has revised their polices to allow perfumes and liquor to be allowed on planes only under certain circumstances.
Sales of liquor and perfumes at duty-free airport stores resumed Tuesday after federal officials amended a ban on liquids allowed aboard aircraft.
Under new rules, the Transportation Security Administration said passengers will be allowed to take duty-free items on board if they are delivered directly onto the aircraft by store workers.
