Southwest Flight 811 was preparing to depart to Phoenix when a "nonspecific" threat was reported to Phoenix authorities, said Jenny Wedge, a John Wayne Airport spokeswoman.
Sheriff's officials described it as a bomb-threat, indicating that the department's bomb squad has been called in to investigate.
"The plane was getting ready to taxi, and they managed to stop the plane and isolate it," Balicki said.

Phoenix Sky Harbor also locked down due to bomb threats, 3 planes.
Yep. How easy would it be for the Muzzies to call in about 50 bomb threats at different airports and shut everything down?
Is May 9th some special day for the Muzzies?
Might be “John Wayne” day for them!
Sorry, bad joke
Thanks for posting this. Sacramento’s channel 13 was reporting and I missed all but the last few seconds of it, so had to come here!!!
John Wayne would kick some Muzzie azz if they messed with America.
“John Wayne’s not dead-he’s frozen. And as soon as we find a cure for cancer we’re gonna thaw out the Duke out and he’s gonna be pretty pissed off. You know why? Have you ever taken a cold shower? Well multiply that by 15 million times, that’s how pissed off he’s gonna be.” - Dennis Leary A*hole
No doubt
You’right, Pilgrim. The Duke would be mighty pissed off today.
President Obama’s CIA has an undercover agent calling in these threats.

They might even throw in a real bomb here and there to keep the threats credible. Nice to know the WOT is over.
Yep, According to the Obama Ilk the War On Terror is over!!! ABO, Anybody But Obama!!! Check out that West Virginia Democrat POTUS Primary vote. Obama’s primary oppponent, a convicted Texas felon, gets 42% of the Democrat Primary vote. Folks, these are Democrat voters voting against Obama!!! “Yippee”!!!
Since it was a specific plane, I bet somebody’s ex-girlfriend/wife was on it, and they wanted to prevent it from leaving. That is where my money is, any takers?
Obama Lead Grows; Up by 7%

Fat Lady still suffering from larhingitis.
Wouldn’t surprise me a bit. But Al Qaeda-niks are watching the news, too. And they may be insane, but they aren’t stupid.
Damn. Bomb threats, kidnappings, soldiers being killed in Trashkanistan. Seems like things were safer before The War On Terror was over.
My favorite airport (love that area)
