Planes already at the airport were either cleared to take off or were backed
away from the building as a precaution because the threat was considered
credible, Mr Johnson said.
“It was called in specifically to our airport,” he explained. “There
were specific locations as well as specific numbers that were given to the
people who answered the phone.”
The threat was called in at 2:35 pm, and one of the airport’s two terminals
was cleared within the hour, Mr Johnson said in an e-mail to AFP.
The airport handles an average of 260 domestic and international flights and
14,000 to 15,000 passengers a day.
