Airlines and airports across Europe are on high alert after a wave of hoax bomb threats targeted commercial flights this week, leaving at least 35 planes searched or diverted.
Authorities will be hoping to see a quieter day today after yesterday’s disruptions.
But one of the incidents yesterday remains under closer scrutiny.
An Aer Lingus pilot who was flying from Dublin to Rome when the plane was diverted to the Évreux military base after a bomb threat is facing scrutiny from the French authorities after reportedly insisting on landing at a civilian airport.
