Passengers were not informed about a security threat on a plane at Sydney Airport.

The recent incident involving an Air New Zealand flight at Sydney Airport has caused quite a stir among passengers. Many were caught off guard, only finding out about the security threat from news reports. The Australian Federal Police have launched a major investigation into the matter, with the plane from Wellington being isolated at the end of the runway, carrying a total of 154 passengers.

Mercury Lin, one of the passengers on board, described the experience as sitting on the tarmac for an hour, which seemed quite unusual. Others who were on the flight shared their accounts with Radio New Zealand, mentioning a bomb threat and confirming it with the sight of ambulances and police vehicles outside the window. Despite the alarming situation, some passengers, like Pauline Crown, managed to remain calm and not feel scared. However, the presence of heavily armed police officers did add to the overall tension of the situation.

The scene at the airport was chaotic, with dozens of ambulances and fire trucks rushing to the scene and tactical police taking up strategic positions. Surprisingly, there was no announcement made to the passengers about the security scare. Some of them only found out by checking live news reports on their phones. After an hour, the plane was finally moved closer to the terminal, and passengers were allowed to disembark. As a precaution, sniffer dogs checked the carry-on bags of the passengers before they could leave the aircraft.

Despite the apparent bomb threat, the Australian Federal Police reported that their search of the plane, luggage, and passengers did not yield anything suspicious. Although it had all the signs of a potential disaster, the authorities made sure to take all precautions to ensure the safety and security of everyone involved. Air New Zealand issued an apology for the inconvenience caused, emphasizing that the well-being of their passengers and crew is their topmost priority.
