GRAPEVINE, Texas – An American Airlines jet returned to Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport Wednesday after a suspicious item, later determined to be a computer security identification device, was found on board.
A flight attendant found the device under a cabin seat about 40 minutes after Flight 1474 had taken off for Charlotte, N.C., said Tim Wagner, a spokesman for Fort Worth-based American.
The pilot returned the plane to D/FW Airport and parked it in a remote area of the tarmac for inspection. The 59 passengers and five crew members on board the MD-80 aircraft were safely deplaned.
"Purely as a precaution, the pilot returned and a security agent identified the device," Wagner said.
Wagner said the small device, which displays passwords to help prevent computer fraud or tampering, probably belonged to a passenger.
No other flights were delayed during the mid-afternoon incident.
The passengers were to be put on other flights to Charlotte.
