Following a bomb threat on a flight from Poland to Greece, the plane landed safely in Athens on 22 January 2023.
The aircraft and passengers were searched, and no bomb was found, authorities said. The Boeing 737-800 plane arrived in Athens at 5:40 pm after departing from Katowice around 2 hours late.
It was escorted through Greek airspace by two Hellenic Air Force F-16 fighters.
The flight was operated by Buzz airlines, a Polish subsidiary of low-cost carrier Ryanair.
The search for an explosive device, which lasted over an hour, turned up nothing. The airline has not made a statement and airport authorities did not respond to inquiries, according to news agency AP.
