^^^That's the departure airport's responsible to do that, and the arrival airport's job to detain the passengers if they got something from the departure airport, Maybe if theey found something after the flight has occured, and they notified YVR ?? ......Just a thought, thats all !Inactive from May 1 2009.

Originally posted by ptbodaleIt was the domestic area. AC has to land to flights because of the security breach and have the pax rescreened.
I know one time I almost walked out of security at YVR with my camera bag, when they were planning to swab it because they were slow and didn't tell me. They realized before I got too far though, and called me back. This was in the US terminal though.

Sounds like something very serious, no one has any more information on this? A security breach can be any number of things. Surprisingly, I haven't seen it on the news.

What happened was the screeners messed up. Long after the pax had been screened and the flights had left an "image" came up on the screen. They thought the image showed a "dangerous item". They raised the alarm but the flights were airborne. Two AC A321's had to divert to YWG and an A330 was held in YYZ on arrival.

And why did the image come up after the people had gone already?
