AA Flight Diverted to Rome Over Bomb Threat

American Airlines Flight 292 from New York to New Delhi was diverted to Rome due to a bomb threat. The Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner, carrying 285 passengers, was escorted by Italian Air Force fighter jets and landed safely at Rome's Leonardo da Vinci–Fiumicino Airport. The flight made a significant U-turn over the Caspian Sea to comply with Indian security protocols despite the apparent low threat level. American Airlines confirmed the diversion, emphasizing their commitment to safety and cooperation with local authorities. Passengers face delays as the crew will exceed their duty hours, and further details of the threat remain undisclosed. The incident follows heightened security measures due to recent similar threats on other flights.
