Aer Lingus plane lands safely after diversion to France, airline says DUBLIN, Nov 5 (Reuters) - An Aer Lingus flight from Dublin to Rome was diverted to Normandy on Thursday as a security precaution and has landed safely, the Irish airline said in a statement.
The office of the French Prime Minister said earlier that the Airbus A320 plane was diverted to France's Evreux airbase following a bomb threat.
