Ryanair plane escorted by fighter jets over hoax bomb threat
A Ryanair flight was escorted into London Stansted Airport today by UK Royal Air Force jets following reports of a bomb on board. It had taken off from Lithuanian city Kaunas, and was diverted when Lithuanian authorities received a suspected hoax security alert. "The aircraft landed normally at Stansted and customers will be transferred to Luton by coach," said Ryanair.
