Security concern grounded flight
A plane had to make an emergency landing after the crew alerted police to a security threat on board.
The Eurocypria flight from Bristol to Cyprus was diverted to London Stansted on Sunday morning.
Essex police officers surrounded the plane and the passengers and baggage were unloaded.
It was found to have been a false alarm and police said there was no cause for concern. Officers would not release details about the nature of the threat.
The journey continued at about 1545 BST and the plane flew to Crete where passengers stayed overnight before another flight took them to their destination in Cyprus the following morning.
Precautionary measure
A spokesman for Essex Police said that they were not investigating the incident any further.
"Essex Police received information from the crew of an aircraft that there was a potential threat to passengers on board a flight which was from Bristol.
"The Eurocypria flight landed shortly after 1pm on Sunday 21 September at Stansted Airport, with the airline taking the decision to land the aircraft.
"Passengers and crew were met by officers and security staff.
"It was soon established that there was no validity in the threat.
"Following a delay due to security measures, the passengers were able to continue with their onward journey."
A spokesman from Stansted Airport said: "The captain landed the aircraft at Stansted as a precautionary measure and it was quickly found that there was no validity in the threat."
No-one from Eurocypria has been available for comment.
