Summary
A Wizz Air flight bound for Rome from Prague was diverted to Venice on Friday after a bomb scare and landed there safely, according to an airport authority source.
ANSA had reported the alert stemmed from a phone call to Rome Fiumicino airport's control tower, but the source disputed that account.
The diversion shifted the flight away from its intended destination as authorities worked to respond to the security threat.
