Anyone know what happened to the B747 that was blocking taxiway charlie during the wee hours of Mon the 3rd Sep?
Saw the cargo doors opened as we taxied by on 21R, and fire engines parked to the rear.

It's probably TG944 bound for Rome. Apparently, there was a bomb thread, so they had to evacuate and search the entire plane. The flight finally departed at 4 am local time. It's a big mess right now internally at TG.

Thanks CFIT. Hope no-one was hurt, and that things return to normal soon in BKK.

Same stunt Tuesday night for same service. Bomb threat by email recieved by Madrid office (this is the end destination of the Rome flight).
