Passengers were asked to evacuate Kansas City International Airport amid reports of an active bomb threat. The reported evacuation began around 11:50am local time on Sunday, according to social media posts on X. Others have reported being moved from Concourse B to Concourse A and being filtered onto tarmac via staircases as “emergency sirens” sound in the background.“We were all told to immediately get to concourse A. K9’s and agents all over the place. No planes on the tarmac,” one passenger wrote online.“The Kansas City Aviation Department is aware of a situation at Kansas City International Airport (MCI),” a spokesperson of the airport said.
