A daily United Airlines flight from Los Angeles to Washington is getting extra security checks because of an unspecified threat.
Steve Luckey, chair of the Air Line Pilots Association’s national security committee, said United sent a memo to pilots alerting them to the threat and the additional safety measures for Flight 200 to Dulles International Airport.
Pilots, crew and passengers, as well as their luggage, are undergoing additional security checks before boarding the plane, Luckey said.
He had no details about the threat or when it was received. He said the memo went out about three weeks ago.
