NICOSIA, CYPRUS — Cyprus Airways says a bomb threat has delayed the takeoff of two of its flights for several hours.
Airline spokesman Kyriakos Kyriakou says an unidentified caller warned of a bomb aboard an unspecified Cyprus Airways flight this afternoon
That prompted the airline to delay two flights that were about to depart from Larnaca airport in Nicosia: one to Dubai and Bahrain, and the other to London.
The spokesman says police checked both aircraft and their luggage after a total of 400 passengers disembarked. Kyriakou says nothing suspicious was found and the takeoffs were rescheduled.
