COUNTER terrorism officers are now involved after a man was arrested on an easyJet plane that landed at Glasgow Airport, police have said.
The new information has come to light after videos circulating online appear to show a man shouting that he allegedly had a bomb on the flight.
In the clip, he can also be reportedly heard shouting "death to America" and "death to Trump" before he repeatedly shouts “Allahu Akbar."
Passengers can then be seen tackling the man to the ground in the video that allegedly shows the incident.
We previously reported that the flight was met by police this morning when it landed at Glasgow Airport due to a 'passenger's behaviour'.
Police say that they are aware of the videos, and counter-terror officers are investigating.
The easyJet A319 aircraft was flying from London Luton Airport and was only a few minutes from Glasgow Airport when pilots declared an emergency.
Flight EZY609 was met by police when it landed, who boarded the aircraft and removed the passenger due to their behaviour onboard.
It's understood that the aircraft was parked at a remote stand of the airport for police to deal with the situation.
Police have confirmed that a 41-year-old man has been arrested in connection with the incident.
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “We received a report of a man causing a disturbance on a flight arriving in Glasgow around 8.20am on Sunday, 27 July, 2025.
“Officers boarded the plane on its arrival and a 41-year-old man was arrested and remains in custody. Enquiries are continuing.
“At this time we believe the incident was contained and that nobody else was involved.
“We are aware of videos circulating online and these are being assessed by counter terrorism officers.”
The airline said that they acted quickly to control the situation and ensure that the safety of passengers and crew wasn't compromised.
An easyJet spokesperson said: "Flight EZY609 from Luton to Glasgow this morning was met by police on arrival in Glasgow, where they boarded the aircraft and removed a passenger due to their behaviour onboard.
"easyJet's crew are trained to assess all situations and act quickly and appropriately to ensure that the safety of the flight and other customers is not compromised at any time.
"The safety and well-being of our customers and crew is always easyJet's highest priority."
