AUSTIN, Texas (KEYE-TV) ― A bomb threat was called on an American Airlines flight departing from Austin to Chicago Friday afternoon, CBS affiliate KEYE-TV in Austin, Texas, is reporting.
Austin-Bergstrom International Airport officials said that 129 passengers on flight 2486 headed to Chicago are currently being offloaded on a maintenance ramp.
A flight attendant doing departure checks found a note in the bathroom saying something about a bomb. She told the pilot, and the plane was taken to the south terminal of ABIA, which has no passengers.
