A flight carrying socialite Paris Hilton from Los Angeles to Hawaii ahead of the Christmas holiday was evacuated Tuesday after a fellow traveler discovered a four-inch serrated knife hidden in a pocket on the plane.

The hotel heiress and her nightclub promoter boyfriend Cy Waits were heading to Maui for a sunshine holiday break when the plane was evacuated by security at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX).

“We were about to take off then security made everyone deplane because they found a big knife on board the plane,” Paris Tweeted. “Scary that it got on plane.”

“They just finished the security sweep of the plane. About to board again. So strange a knife got on board. Can’t wait to get to Maui,” the heiress posted after an hour of waiting.

The police weren’t called as airport sources identified the weapon as “box-cutting knife” belonging to the airline crew, TMZ reports.

After a nearly two-hour delay, the plane took off as planned.
