Hyderabad-Bound Lufthansa Flight Diverted Over Bomb Threat: Sources
A Hyderabad-bound Lufthansa flight made a U-turn and landed back at Frankfurt airport last evening due to a bomb threat, said sources. The bomb threat was received about two hours after Flight LH752 took off from Germany at 2.14 pm local time on Sunday. It was scheduled to land at the Rajiv Gandhi International Airport early Monday. Reports had initially suggested that the crew had informed the passengers that they had not been given "permission to land" in India. A female passenger who was on her way to visit her mother in Hyderabad said that the flight has been rescheduled for Monday morning and that they were provided overnight accommodation. "We were told that Hyderabad hasn't given permission to land the flight there. We will fly out tomorrow morning at 10 am on the same flight," she told news agency PTI.

Here's why Lufthansa flight to Hyderabad took u-turn mid-air and landed back at Frankfurt airport instead…
On June 15, a Lufthansa flight from Frankfurt to Hyderabad was forced to return back to base mid-air, but no reason was publicly cited. Now, speaking to ANI, the aviation major has clarified that it was not technical, but an administrative issue that led to the u-turn back to Germany. It was earlier reported that the Rajiv Gandhi International Airport's Air Traffic Control (ATC) received a notification that Flight LH752 was taking a u-turn back to Frankfurt shortly after departure. The Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner aircraft, took off from Frankfurt at 2.15 pm local time and was originally scheduled to arrive in Hyderabad at 6 am IST today morning, according to flight tracking website FlightAware. As per the ANI report, the Lufthansa flight was 'forced' to make a u-turn and return to Frankfurt airport on June 15. A spokesperson for the airline told ANI, 'We did not receive a permit to land in Hyderabad and that's why the aircraft took a u-turn and returned.' (This is a developing story, more updates coming…)
