Guardian News published this video item, entitled “Spanish fighter jet escorts easyJet plane to Menorca after teen bomb hoax” – below is their description.
An easyjet flight heading from London to the Spanish island of Menorca on Sunday was escorted to its destination by a fighter jet after a British teenage passenger made a bomb threat on social media.
The 18-year-old who was travelling with five friends spent the night in jail and awaits a court hearing, said a Spanish police spokesperson.
Footage of the incident showed a Spanish F18 flying close to the distinctive orange wingtips of the commercial airline. The fighter jet is seen waggling its wings, a gesture to indicate that the easyJet plane should follow its course
