>> reporter: that's right. wisdom, for the second day in a row now united airlines has canceled its direct daily non- stop flights to brussels, the airport closed again this wednesday. that flight supposed to leave about 7:00, is not going to leave again tonight. you mentioned security, showing you, there have been hea teams, the airport police department here not because of any threat. there is no word of any imminent threat, or any known threat at all against any of the airport or any target, potential target here in the area. there is no a squad car with flight flashing at the entrance outside it. sa at their security check pit, traveling warning to anybody flying to europe, anywhere in europe. talking to passenger here this morning for the most part taking it all in stride. >> i think they already have things line up pretty well. not terribly concerned in the state here. >> i any time do you have fly, you know, it is scary. you don't know what, anything can happen, any time. yes. you have to watch out. same. you know. talk to talk to. >> no, i don't have any concern, just praying that everything is okay. we're very secure. >> again, besides the one daily non-stop flight from here, dullos to brussels, all of the flights seem to be going along just fine, just little extra police security here not because of threat but in case, maureen, we send it back into you. >> security also tight at reagan national this morning. fox's doug luzader there life. doug, what's it looking like there? >> probably similar to what bob is saying. i mean, busy time of day for the airport here. see a lot of passengers, but, we are of course hearing from both the department of homeland security and the tsa. going to be increasing security at number of major airport around the country. now, the concern is for this area, that you see behind me here, the non-secure zone before you get to the security gate. a protect. it is tough to stop anyone from just walking in the door here. they hope that to some degree by having more visible presence it helps dis aid would be attackers. highlights a real problem in free and open society. it is very difficult to protect everyone everywhere. >> indeed. i was wondering in you a chance to talk to any travelers this morning, if they are saying anything about being open to even more security. we already know we've got a lot now, slow things down, but it is for our safety. would they be open to more? >> reporter: well, you know, i think that would be an interesting polling question to ask, to see whether americans are willing to deal with longer lines, for instance, at airports, we're already perhaps close to a breaking point in terms of what passengers will put up with. but very considerably from one airport to the next. but the kind of things that tsa is talking about right now won't necessarily make a lines longer, at least, what we are hearing from them, which is just having more visible presence around these airports, not necessarily, changing the screening process per say. >> yes, just looking behind you, people walking about, i don't get the sense that anyone is panic there right now. so it seems like otherwise normal morning, if i'm correct? >> yes. maureen, i think the other thing you have to add to that, especially in the dc area, specially this airport, you have lot of seasoned travelers that do this kind of thing all the time. they certainly have been aware of terror scares before, and they just generally go about their business, of course, you know, unseen here, the individuals that have chose canceled flights, so on, but no indication that was happening on large scale. >> dug luzader live at reagan national airport, thank you for. that will wisdom talking back up to you, i guess as you're seeing more sign of the times, the times we live in right now, where secure it is he paramount all around?
