A bomb threat called into Eurowings (LH’s Low Cost Carrier operator) was proven to be a hoax after the aircraft landed safely and was thoroughly searched by authorities.
The flight was enroute from Salalah, Oman to Cologne when the bomb threat forced the aircraft to divert to Kuwait City with 287 passengers and 10 crew aboard the Airbus A330. Passengers were then able to continue onward to Germany.
BTW, has there ever been a ‘bomb threat’ called in that actually resulted in a bomb being discovered? Didn’t think so.
