The Northern Airport Authority has just issued an administrative fine of VND4 million to a male passenger for joking about bombs, after he had just boarded an international flight to Noi Bai.

Specifically, when the flight attendant greeted the passenger at the plane door and asked (in English) about the black box that Mr. H. was carrying, he replied that it was a "bomb".

Immediately, the flight crew reported the incident to the authorities. When the passenger got off the plane, Noi Bai International Airport police detained the person to clarify the incident.
