Malaysia Airlines Passenger Fined RM650 For Making Bomb Joke After Landing In Hanoi

If there’s one thing you should never joke about on a flight, or even at the airport, for that matter, it’s a bomb threat. Security will take it seriously, and for good reason. A couple of years ago, a Malaysia Airlines flight was forced to turn back after a passenger became aggressive and made an alleged bomb threat while in the air. Thankfully, he was arrested for his actions and passengers were reportedly compensated by being transferred to the next available flight.

Unfortunately, another Malaysia Airlines passenger has made headlines for thinking it was a good idea to joke about carrying explosives during a recent flight to Hanoi. Here’s what happened:

The Vietnamese man boarded Malaysia Airlines flight MH752 from Kuala Lumpur to Hanoi. Shortly after landing, while a flight attendant was bidding farewell to passengers disembarking the aircraft, she asked the man about the long black carry-on bag he was carrying. In response, he joked that it was a bomb, prompting an immediate emergency response.

The flight attendant alerted security at Noi Bai International Airport, and the passenger was swiftly detained by immigration officers for questioning by multiple agencies, including Malaysia Airlines representatives, emergency command centre officers, and Vietnam Airport Ground Services staff. Naturally, the bag was thoroughly inspected, revealing nothing more than a computer keyboard and a mouse.

The passenger admitted that the bomb remark was intended as a joke, claiming he was unaware of the seriousness of making such comments. Earlier this week, Noi Bai International Airport issued a statement confirming that the passenger had been issued an administrative fine of VNĐ4 million (approximately RM650). “Had the joke been made by a departing passenger, the entire process would have been far more complicated,” the Emergency Command Unit told reporters.

Thankfully, the bomb threat turned out to be an ill-judged joke. However, let this serve as a reminder that making jokes about weapons or explosives in airports or on aircraft is strictly prohibited. Such remarks can trigger immediate security responses and cause unnecessary panic among staff and passengers.
