Mile-High Security Theatre

Here. From. Dig The Militant's "Native Wk.," too.

Etcetera (1513PDT, 11 September 2011):
The passengers on American Airlines Flight 34 went into a bathroom and were "not compliant," a security official told NBC New York.

Several sources tell NBC News that two, possibly three, passengers were drunk and refused to follow flight attendant instructions, making long and frequent visits to the lavatories.

American Airlines spokeswoman Andrea Huguely said the flight proceeded with normal landing after the flight captain and crew assessed the situation "and did not see any cause for alarm." The airline stressed that it did not request escorts or extra security at JFK upon arrival.

Passengers told NBC New York after landing that they didn't even know there was an incident on board until they saw police meeting the flight on the ground.
