Officials at the St. John’s International Airport say a bomb threat that halted commercial flights Friday morning was not really a threat after all. A post on the X said police and officials from Transport Canada and the airport determined the threat to be “non-credible” and operations resumed around noon.

The airport said the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary’s canine team searched the building, and security footage was checked.

The bomb threat prompted the airport authority to evacuate the facility’s main terminal building and halt all commercial flights earlier in the morning. Non-commercial flights such as medical evacuations were not affected because they operate out of a different part of the airport.

Ryan Howell, a spokesperson for the airport authority, said, “We evacuated the airport terminal building and flight operations were halted in the sense that nothing can come into the terminal.”

But in the end, he said there were minimal disruptions to operations and that it was a “happy ending.”

The Royal Newfoundland Constabulary said they were still investigating what happened even though the threat posed no risk to public safety.
