BR 12 TPE-LAX MAY 26 Also Received Chemical Weapon Threat
BR 12 that departed TPE at 18:40 (GMT+8) on 26 May, like the AF flight yesterday, also received threat about chemical weapons onboard. It sounded like the threat was made in the US.

Looks like the report was made 20 minutes before landing. It is unfounded and the flight arrived without much delay at 15:40 but passengers did not disembark until about 17:30.
The return flight, BR 11, departed over 2 hours late.
