NEWARK, N.J. (AP) -- Security officials at Newark Liberty International Airport delayed a Las Vegas-bound flight Tuesday because a passenger was carrying two small knives in her luggage.

Continental Flight 768 missed its scheduled 7:30 a.m. departure.

Transportation Security Administration spokeswoman Ann Davis says a passenger looking through her overhead luggage had a small Swiss Army knife and another knife with a 2 1/2 inch blade. [Full Article (http://www.1010wins.com/NJ-Flight-Delayed-after-Knives-Found-in-Luggage/4242673)]

That story is rather vague...it states the passenger found them while going through her bag, so did she bring that to the attention of the FA or did someone say something?

FA overreacted.

I love how the line about United 93 was just tacked on at the end in a dire attempt to somehow inject some 'media scare'.

That's what they do best, after all...
