NASHVILLE – A Southwest Airlines flight destined for Baltimore has been diverted to Nashville after what an airline official described as “suspicious behavior” by a passenger.
The flight, which originated in Albuquerque on Saturday morning, was reset for a 3:15 CDT departure. Nashville International Airport spokeswoman Emily Richard told The Tennessean that no arrests were made (http://bit.ly/p5FcWi).
Southwest Airlines spokesman Chris Mainz declined to elaborate on the passenger’s behavior. The plane landed in Nashville at 1:10 p.m. CDT.
Police ordered all the passengers off the plane, sent them back through security and examined the plane before passengers were allowed back on.
Mainz could not say whether the passenger in question was allowed back on the flight.
