Us Flight Bomb Scare

A flight from Panama to the United States made a u-turn Friday after the discovery of a suspicious package in the toilet that turned out to be... an adult diaper, airport officials said.

A 37-year-old American man, who was arrested last month for allegedly causing a bomb threat and assaulting a passenger on board Singapore Airlines flight, was denied bail.

Two Air France flights en route to Paris from the United States were diverted on Tuesday because of security issues, and passengers and crew were safely removed, the Federal Aviation Administration said.

A US man has been charged with giving false information and threats after saying he had a bomb in his backpack on a US domestic flight, triggering emergency procedures, prosecutors said on Tuesday.

Federal air marshals confronted a passenger who had apparently lit a cigarette in an airline lavatory on Wednesday night, leading NORAD to scramble two fighter jets and a phalanx of law enforcement officials to meet the plane, United Flight 663, when it landed at Denver International Airport.
