A major terrorist plot to blow up planes in mid-flight has been disrupted by police, Scotland Yard says.
It is thought the plan was to detonate explosive devices smuggled on board aircraft in hand luggage.
During the night, police arrested a number of people in London after a counter-terrorist operation they said had lasted several months.
Police believe the attacks would have been particularly targeted at flights from the UK to the US.
The Department for Transport said security at all UK airports has been increased.
Passengers on all flights will not be allowed to take any hand luggage on to any flights in the UK.
Only the barest essentials - including passports and wallets - will be allowed to be carried on board in transparent plastic bags.
True, so they would try to blow up at some designated time when most would be over some kind of land where they could hurt more people.
This is the FIRST time it has ever been moved to RED, isn't it?
There is no way in the world they are ever going to get it.
They'll just say "See how pissed off the world is at us?"

Well, wait until Shepherd Smith makes his guess....70 - 80 at least.
Meanwhile Geraldo will be dodging falling airliners... even though the plot was foiled.
Milk train... I mean plane. You'll be A-OK.
The flight to San Diego really had me worried: lots of burkas and Arabs. I was stunned.
Hey, J!
a la Johnny Carson!
diapers can be taken...formula will need to be sipped by the mom/ dad in front of security personnel...
Pakis aren't Arabs; CAIR may keep quite on this.
You keep chasing your useless tail here. Learn to admit defeat. Synchrony is difficult on that level.
It gets worse, janet. This is deadly serious and they're not certain they have arrested all the cretins involved.
THE HSAS SECURITY THREAT LEVEL FOR ALL FLIGHTS FROM THE UK TO THE UNITED STATES HAS BEEN RAISED TO THE LEVEL "RED".
ALL OTHER COMMERCIAL FLIGHTS FOR THE UNITED STATES HAS BEEN RAISED TO THE LEVEL "ORANGE"
Message ends.

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Dearbornistan terror arrests:
Flight docs and 600+ tracphones

Busted (hat tip: Paul):
Two men were charged Wednesday with money laundering in support of terrorism after authorities said they found airplane passenger lists and information on airport security checkpoints in their car.
Deputies stopped Osama Sabhi Abulhassan, 20, and Ali Houssaiky, 20, both of Dearborn, Mich., on a traffic violation Tuesday and found the flight documents along with $11,000 cash and 12 phones in their car, Washington County Sheriff Larry Mincks said.
It wasn't clear what significance the airline information might have. Assistant County Prosecutor Susan Vessels declined to comment on whether the manifests were for upcoming flights or those that already flown. She also would not give the origin or destination of the flight or flights.
FBI spokesman Mike Brooks in Cincinnati said his office was notified about the arrests and had an agent investigating.
Abulhassan and Houssaiky admitted buying about 600 phones in recent months at stores in southeast Ohio, said sheriff's Maj. John Winstanley. They sold the phones to someone in Dearborn, a Detroit suburb, Winstanley said.
Vessels declined to say how the phones, cash or flight information involved terrorism.
Investigators going through the car after the pair were pulled over in Marietta also found a map that showed locations of Wal-Mart stores from Ohio through Kentucky, Tennessee and into North and South Carolina, Vessels said."
I think this crisis was averted so far.
Offhand, I can think of a few dozen. It is a federal offense to disclose the exact chemicals and processes required. NEVER take Mentho's and Diet Coke on an airliner. Ever. There is no need for Draino crystals, aluminum, an unnamed catalyst, and an ignition source on any aircraft, ever.
It certainly would be great.
