Passengers wait to check in their luggage at Detroit Metropolitan airport in Romulus, Michigan December 26, 2009. A Nigerian man with possible links to al Qaeda militants was in custody on Saturday after he tried to ignite an explosive device on a U.S. passenger plane as it approached Detroit, U.S. officials said.
