Scott Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 'Hijacked' Ethiopian plane lands in Geneva An Ethiopian plane bound for Rome has landed at Geneva Airport after a suspected hijacking, a spokesman of the airport told Reuters news agency. Ethiopian Airlines flight 702 was reportedly denied permission to land and circled over Geneva for several minutes before it landed at the airport, which was closed by authorities. A spokesman of the airline said all passengers and crew were safe.

Chicog Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 I must admit, if the eventual destination was Rome he could have walked off and claimed asylum there. Perhaps the pilot was being mean to him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
