一架从纽瓦克自由国际机场起飞、前往西班牙的联合航空航班周六在飞行途中因疑似安全威胁返航。
据新泽西州和纽约港务局消息,该航班于当晚6点左右起飞,原计划飞往西班牙马略卡岛帕尔马,最终于当晚9点37分降落在纽瓦克机场。航空公司表示,这架波音767客机上共有190名乘客和12名机组人员。
根据航空管制录音,一名乘客将自己的蓝牙设备命名为“某四字脏话”后,安保人员登机对飞机进行了检查。
据LiveATC.net网站的录音显示,塔台人员称:“他们必须检查整架飞机,包括货舱区域。”
一名在社交媒体发帖的乘客表示,机组人员多次要求乘客关闭所有蓝牙设备,但仍有两台设备处于开启状态。在与位于芝加哥的航空公司总部沟通后,航班选择返航。
一名网友在社交媒体上发布的视频显示,机组人员和执法人员正引导乘客下飞机,登上停机坪上的巴士。
乘客们被迫撤离,港务局警察对飞机进行了搜查,随后乘客们接受了美国运输安全管理局(TSA)和海关与边境保护局的重新安检,之后才能重新登机。航空公司拒绝透露此次事件的具体原因。
乘客们搭乘了搭载新机组人员的替补航班,该航班于周日清晨起飞,当天下午降落在帕尔马机场。
美国联邦航空管理局(FAA)在一份声明中表示,联合航空236号航班周六返航纽瓦克自由国际机场,“原因是机组人员报告发生乘客骚乱”。据FAA透露,2026年迄今航空公司已报告超过640起乘客寻衅滋事事件。
这是本月联合航空航班又一起事故。周五,一架国内航班因一名寻衅滋事乘客引发的安全顾虑被迫改道。本月早些时候,一架联合航空客机在纽瓦克机场降落时与一辆半挂卡车和一根灯杆相撞,所幸无人受伤。事发时这架波音767客机的时速为160英里。

United Airlines flight to Spain returns to U.S. after Bluetooth device is labeled a “certain four-letter word”
June 1, 2026 / 9:34 AM EDT / CBS/AP
A United Airlines flight bound for Spain from Newark Liberty International Airport turned around midflight Saturday due to a possible security threat.
The flight departed around 6 p.m. for Palma de Mallorca, Spain, but landed back at Newark at 9:37 p.m., according to the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. The airline said there were 190 passengers and 12 crew members on board the Boeing 767 aircraft.
According to air traffic control audio, security came to inspect the aircraft after someone named their Bluetooth device a “certain four-letter word.”
“They have to inspect the whole aircraft, including the cargo area,” the tower can be heard saying, according to audio from LiveATC.net
A passenger posting on social media said crew members repeatedly asked passengers to turn off all Bluetooth devices, but two devices remained on. The flight turned around after communicating with the airline’s headquarters in Chicago.
One person posted video on social media showing crew and officers escorting passengers off the plane and onto a bus on the tarmac.
Passengers had to evacuate as the aircraft was swept by Port Authority police, and passengers were re-screened by TSA and Customs and Border Patrol before re-boarding. The airline declined to provide specifics on the cause of the incident.
Passengers boarded a replacement flight with a new crew, which took off early Sunday morning and landed in Palma in the afternoon.
In a statement, the FAA said United Airlines Flight 236 returned to Newark Liberty International Airport on Saturday “after the crew reported a passenger disturbance.” According to the FAA, airlines have reported more than 640 unruly passenger incidents so far in 2026.
This was the latest incident with a United Airlines flight this month. On Friday, a domestic flight was diverted because of a security concern with an unruly passenger. Earlier this month, a United flight landing at Newark airport struck a semitrailer truck and a light pole, though no one was injured. The Boeing 767 was traveling at 160 mph at the time of the collision.
