i don't understand the good it's going to do to turn around a flight with a bomb threat. i mean if it's gonna go off won't it go off anywhere?
i'll just wait and see what happens and pray it's nothing serious.

Just keep calling in bomb threats on all flights to create havoc...without a bomb ever being around. Could get scary.

Not AQ/BinLaden. They don't make threats, do they?

Hey that flight would have been close to my beloved Vegas, evidently a holiday target for the bad guys!

Archie Bunker was right. All passengers should be armed throughout the duration of a flight.

How long before every fact in this sentence is refuted. Flight, Bomb, Threat, Chicago, Phoenix, "turned around". We'll see.

From my Watch Desk:

Only MSNBC is picking this up on open source. Fox and CNN are silent.

DHS and FEMA boards are dark.

Cannot confirm if A/C is back @ O'Hare; few minutes delay-time in reporting.

Will continue.

I hear it's a false alarm...actually, Michael Moore got on the flight right from attending a chili cook-ff.

Real terrorists dont call in bomb threats, this is nothing to get excited about. The fact that they are turning around is not a good thing, and will just incourage more of the same.
