A Victorian man has been arrested in Cairns, after allegedly telling police there was a bomb on board a plane that had left the far north Queensland city last night.
It is alleged the 31-year-old called 000 about 11:00pm AEST last night and said there was a bomb on board a commercial flight from Cairns to Melbourne .
Police say the call was traced to a mobile phone registered to an address in Hampton Park in Victoria.
They called the number and a negotiator spoke to the man who surrendered himself to police a short time later.
He has been charged with the use of a carriage service for a hoax and is due to appear in the Cairns Magistrates Court this morning.
