Lost codes spark airport scramble on eve of Obama's arrival
TOKYO - Airport authorities in Tokyo launched a frantic scramble to change security pass codes, an official said Tuesday, the day before U.S. President Barack Obama arrives, after an airline employee dropped a memo containing the details.
The news came as security in the Japanese capital was dramatically ramped up, with 16,000 police officers deployed in readiness for the first state visit by a U.S. president in nearly two decades.
A Skymark Airlines employee at the busy Haneda airport in Tokyo lost a piece of paper bearing security codes on Sunday afternoon, a transport ministry official said.
The note was found on the floor of the departure lobby around half-an-hour later, he said.
