Hawaiian Airlines said the situation was not security related Flight 39 left for Maui from PDX at 10:10 a.m. and was an hour-and-a-half into its direct flight when the crew turned the plane around and brought the plane citing issues with a passenger.
The passengers deplaned and reboarded and the flight was scheduled to take off back to Maui.
Unruly?...can any journalist or government official tell us anything relevant?
Wow! Bad passenger on board, 200 well behaved passenger patriots gets shot down by missles. Film at eleven.
State run media doing the criminals bidding in DC? Look behind the curtain, this and other airport scares have top billing and airplay possibly to divert your attention from the closed door criminal healthcare scam? Or maybe some other executive orders or back door legislation being pushed under the tent while were being mesmerized by their non stories

I’ll bet there was a plane load of very angry passengers on that plane. Their trip to Maui had been cut short.
Ping!
I’m flying to Maui on Saturday and my wife is already nervous enough about this flight. Guess I won’t be showing her this article...
No they can not. Because it’s all PR, to get the American people to believe Obama is now more concerned about Homeland security than golf.....
Did the passenger appear as if he had a load in his pants?
Fiddling a bit too much with his underwear?
Wearing a turbin while doing so?
Actually, my guess is it was probably some drunk liberal.
Chuck Schumer arguing with flight attendants again?
LOL good luck with that!
Haha, see if you can smuggle some Reeses Peanut butter cups
aboard in her underware, kind of a couples prank eh.
All in good fun. Really honey. HONEY?
I’m trying to make this marriage last ;-)
This article leaves too many unanwered questions.
I guess we’ll need to tune in next week to get the next chapter.
LOL So GOOD and true!
If the Government can’t do it, the PEOPLE will!
