CX382 ZRH-HKG intercepted over Hungary today

Cathay B-777 (B-KPF) operating flight CX382 ZRH-HKG had been intercepted by two Hungarian Gripens today after failing to contact Austrian/Hungarian ATC. Reportedly (as the aircraft did not deviate from the flight plan route) they were "handed over" to Romanian ATC after "visual identification". The case made it to the news in Hungary to explain the sonic boom which was caused by the fighters proceeding to catch the Triple.
