Denver International Airport on Thursday announced travelers can now breeze through security with their shoes still on — no TSA PreCheck required. State of play: The policy change comes two days after Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem announced the Transportation Security Administration was lifting the shoe removal requirement nationwide.

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem announced Tuesday that the mandate for passengers to remove their shoes at screening is over.
