They did not find anything. It end up to be the guy was mentealy ill.

Now there are new rule on the planes
Can not leave your seat the last 1hr of flight
Can not go into the overhead bag storage
No bags under the seats.
Nothing in your lap.
Getting patted down before you get onto the jetway to get on the plane. All overseas flights
A lot more is now band from bring it on to the plane.

I just flew on the 30th and none of that was done we had had my laptop under the seat, jackets in our laps, never got pat down, and people were using the bathrooms as normal and going into their carry-on's in the overhead.

It's international only. Where did you fly in from?

I'll be heading to Thailand again in April...I imagine I'll have more b.s. to contend with.
