An Air France flight has been grounded in Amsterdam after someone made threats on social media to blow the plane up.
All of the passengers were safely evacuated from the flight from Schipol airport, which was supposed to land in Charles de Gaulle in Paris on Satuday afternoon.
Security officials searched the plane with sniffer dogs after an account named @JihadiJohn8 said the jet would be blown up in the same way as the Russian plane leaving Sharm el Sheikh last month.
He also seemed to threaten attacks at Schiphol itself, and another at an airport in Brussels.
He wrote: ‘Yesterday Paris and now @BrusselsAirport and @Schiphol will be attacked very soon by our brothers. #ParisAttacks #isis’. The tweets were later deleted.
The flight, which was scheduled to leave at 2:45pm, is now due to again at 5pm and reach Charles de Gaulle around just over an hour later.
Paris’s airports have remained open, despite the wave of terror attacks which rocked the capital, leaving at least 127 people dead.
Some airlines have cancelled all flights to the French capital until further notice, but Air France and many others are continuing to fly.
