Information of TTFly: Sure, most of us have been there before: Your flight is delayed due to bad weather, you don't know when you'll be able to take off and you're stressed about missing out on your holiday entirely.

We get it, that is annoying, but it's also out of anyone's control bar mother nature.

Unfortunately, one traveller, only identified by his surname Yu, let his frustration get the better of him and had one of the worst reactions possible to such a common scenario.

The 27-year-old was one of 30,000 passengers dealing with flight delays in Taiwan due to storms and torrential rain that impacted Taoyuan International Airport, Shanghaiist.com reports.

His Air China flight CA186 to Beijing was originally scheduled to leave on Thursday, and come 10:00 a.m. on Friday he was so tired of waiting that he did something he no doubt later regretted; he told a cabin crew member that there was a bomb in his luggage.

How he thought that would expedite him onto a plane is anyone's guess.

The captain ordered everyone off the plane while it was towed away and they had to go through another security check, along with their luggage.

Bomb disposal units were called in, but there were no signs of any explosives.

Yu and his companions were interrogated by police.
