The passenger that was on aboard in a Southwest Airline was arrested at the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, Washington after naming his WiFi “Bomb on Board” during a Denver-bound flight.
On Thursday, September 11, passengers aboard ‘Flight 3677′, which was waiting to depart in the tarmac, noticed someone on the plane had named his WiFi hotspot “Southwest – Bomb on Board.”
The male passenger would subsequently change his WiFi hotspot’s name to “Bomb Location 19E”.
The airport security personnel took precautionary steps by having the man taken off the plane and detained. All the passengers were also taken off the plane and their bags were re-screened before the flight was able to continue its trip to Denver.
According to Southwest Airlines officials, the pilot made the decision to report the potential security threat. -
