Several flights to or from Italian airports were among those affected by a new wave of bomb alerts in many parts of Europe on Thursday, with Italian Air Force scrambling jets to escort a Finnair flight from Helsinki to Rome's Fiumicino airport after an anonymous report that an explosive was on board.
An Air Lingus flight from Dublin to Rome with 151 people on board was rerouted to the Evreux airbase in northern France, escorted by French military jets, following a bomb threat.
Wizz Air said its W4 6387 flight to Warsaw was rerouted to Vienna after taking off at Milan's Malpensa Silvio Berlusconi airport for the same reason.
