JAL wheelchairs evade detectors

Boarding a jet in a wheelchair can be a long, challenging process, but thanks to efforts by Japan Airlines Corp. (JAL) at least part of the burden will be eased. JAL announced Dec. 21 a service to lend wheelchairs made of bamboo so passengers needing them can pass through security checks without setting off metal detectors. Passengers in wheelchairs have long complained about setting off alarms even if they aren't wearing any metal, JAL officials said.
