Careless passenger causes international flight to make U-turn

A United Airlines Boeing 767 (EWR→Palma de Mallorca, 190 pax) diverted back to Newark after a passenger's Fitbit named "bomb" triggered a full security response, causing a 8-hour delay and FBI investigation. The incident highlights how airline security protocols treat any unresolved Bluetooth anomaly as a credible threat — zero tolerance policies add significant operational cost and reputational risk, with no local charges filed despite the disruption.
