Over 130 passengers and crew were evacuated from a SilkAir flight yesterday, following a bomb threat. According to a ChannelNewsAsia report the plane was due to depart from the Philippines’ Cebu airport at 1.30pm, bound for Singapore. But airport authorities received news of the suspected bomb minutes before take-off. The plane was moved to an isolation bay at the airport for police inspections, but was finally cleared for take-off five hours later.
