ABC News' Jason Ryan reports: TSA Administrator John Pistole today disclosed that intelligence information was obtained on Dec. 23, 2010 that Al Qaeda on the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) was seeking to make a bomb using insulated drinking mugs and thermoses, leading to the extra check in security lines over the holiday.
Pistole also advised the public to expect additional screening if they travel with the thermal mugs and thermoses.
“In the near future if you want to take your thermos with you just be aware that your going to be subject to more physical screening,' the TSA head said today.
