Emirates passengers held after inflight security alert:
Passengers of an Emirates flight from Dubai to Gatwick have been detained and questioned by police in London after a threatening note was found on board the plane.
An Emirates spokesperson said the note was found by a passenger during the aircraft’s descent into London Gatwick Airport on Sunday.
"A note implying a security threat was found today on EK 011 from Dubai to London Gatwick by a passenger, 10 minutes before landing,” a spokesperson for the Dubai airline said.
“Upon landing all standard safety measures were immediately adopted and the passengers and crew were disembarked safely. The aircraft is now being thoroughly inspected and the passengers are being interviewed by the local authorities.
“For Emirates the safety of its crew and passengers is of paramount importance," the spokesperson added
It is unclear what the note said, but Emirates insisted it would provide further details soon.

saw a woman once, trip a flight attendant on purpose because the attendant refused to serve her alcohol(she was already drunk before boarding the plane) I was the official witness and when we landed in the States, the air marshals met her at the gate and handcuffed her and took her away..this was in front of her 2 children and husband...Can't imagine how they'd treat someone who threatened violence against a planeload of people
