LAX Delta Flight Grounded after Bomb Scare

A security concern caused a Delta flight to be grounded and evacuated, on Sunday. The details regarding the grounding and evacuation were not released by Delta but passengers on Twitter. More than two hours into the flight the pilot announced to passengers that the plane needed to be grounded immediately because of a security threat. When the plane landed it was taken to a remote area of the airport where passengers were placed on buses. The FBI is looking into the indecent. They are hoping that they will be given the all clear soon and passengers will be on their way to Orlando.

How would you feel if something like this happened to you? Would you get back on the plane? 

Would you post on social media what was happening even before you had the confirmation that you are right?

  • Good job!

  • I would not post on social media. That just causes more problems. But I would be terrifyed. Espically being on a plane. That would be so scary. 

  • I wouldn't really know what to think! I would guess that an international airline would be able to address the issue and safely take care of the issue ... But I'd be scared! But I would get on the plane again, if I really wanted to be home. I wouldn't post anything on social media, because if there was a security threat, why would you publicize that?

    • Do you think some people post to much information on social media?

  • I would be extremely confused as to what would be going on. I would also think if there was a bomb on the plane and if it was 9/11 happening all over again. I probably wouldn't since we don't know what all is happening yet and maybe it could have not been an emergency. 

  • We have had a threat recently and it was very scary but to be on a plane what that kind of threat happened would be 10 times worse. I would have been scared out of kind knowing that many terrorist attacks have taken place with planes. I'm not sure if I would have gotten back onto the plane. I guess that if the FBI called it cleared maybe. I would have waited until the threat was clear just so you don't cause rumors.

  • I would go back on the plane because the FBI checked it all out. It would not be a fun experience though. I would definitely be posting things on social media because I would want people to no whats going on.

  • I would not get back on the plane cause sometimes people aren't very thorough and i would not post anything.

  • If something like this happened I would never go near a plane again. I don't really like planes to begin with so I would be terrified. I wouldn't post anything because it could just get you in trouble. 

  • I would fell terrified because even if there is a bomb or not it still would be scary to be aboard a plane and have a bomb threat going on.

    I would not go back on the plane, i would simply just get on another plane.

    I would not post on social media because i think that it is just kinda stupid to put stuff like that on social media
