Spirit Airlines Statement: Flight 969
November 17 2015 - 9:29AM
Spirit Airlines flight 969, scheduled for a 6am departure from
Baltimore-Washington International Airport (BWI) to Chicago O'Hare
international Airport (ORD), experienced a delay this morning due
to law enforcement activity. While the aircraft was taxiing to the
runway, a passenger alerted a flight attendant of a passenger
engaged in suspicious activity on board. The flight attendant
notified the captain, and out of an abundance of caution, the plane
returned to the gate. Law enforcement officers removed four
passengers from the plane for questioning. All passengers were
deplaned for a brief time. The aircraft and luggage were cleared by
the TSA and the plane took off just after 9am. All questions
regarding the investigation should be directed to the TSA and
Maryland Transportation Authority Police.
