AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.

A United Airlines Boeing 767 bound for Palma de Mallorca was forced to turn around and land back at Newark Liberty International Airport after air‑traffic control heard that a passenger’s Bluetooth device had been labeled with a profane four‑letter word, prompting a security inspection of the aircraft and cargo hold. Crew repeatedly asked passengers to turn off all Bluetooth devices, but two remained on, leading to the aircraft’s return at 9:37 p.m. and the evacuation of the 190 passengers and 12 crew members, who were re‑screened by TSA and Customs before boarding a replacement flight the next morning. The FAA said the return was due to a “passenger disturbance,” noting that airlines have logged more than 640 unruly‑passenger incidents so far in 2026, and this was United’s latest incident after a recent domestic flight diversion and an earlier collision at Newark.
