Instead, they were told to quickly follow the agent through a side door that led to the ticketing area and then out to the sidewalk, where hundreds of evacuees were already mingling -- and shivering.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 25541143 South Africa 10/14/2012 09:12 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation	Re: Anchorage International Airport, Alaska, is evacuated because of a 'bomb threat The terminal at Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport was cleared as authorities searched through baggage, airport manager John Parrott said. He said the incident began a little after midnight (1 a.m. PDT) when the man, who was traveling with two male companions, made a reference to a bomb in a bag that had been checked into luggage. John also said that from now on the B-word, and other B-words would be banned from Ted Stevens as with the N-word, the H-word and the A-word. He said that if there was ever was a real bomb or even a nuclear device we don’t want to hear about it in casual conversation. ‘Complete surprise is our policy here at Teddies…!’ Travelers were evacuated to another terminal, while police and others search the luggage. Parrott said that so far, no explosive has turned up.
